The Aztecs were hated by everyone else and built a litteral mountain out of the skulls of surrounding tribes. Their main sport required the head of a captive used as a ball. Hardly a culture you would want to be enriched by.

Sounds like you are drinking a bit of kool aid. Look into the Jewish role in the slave trade and how Colombus was betrayed by some marranos (jews pretending they are not jewish anymore).

frankly i doubt he actually did those things.
I agree with you - there isn't a lot of evidence and it seems it keeps getting exaggerated. The best evidence we have is a Dominican priest slave holder who later became a lobbyist to the King against slavery - Bartolomé de las Casas
It would be like if a pig farmer became the face of PETA. Of course they'd say we're mistreating the pigs.
I'd recommend anyone on the fence to read about him with an open mind and consider if he's an unbiased source.

Yeah but really not any worse than what the original Americans were doing to each other. Cannibalism, warfare, slavery, etc. They were also pretty harsh on their environment. That whole myth of the native in harmony with nature thing has been debunked by what we've found in the last decade.

Same deal here in Australia with the "stolen generations". Our ancestors came here and witnessed tribal warfare that would leave a village completely genocided. Every woman and baby had their heads smashed in, some tribes were cannibalistic too. So they set to work on "kidnapping" children from the tribes and educating them with "whiteys rules and laws" in hopes of speeding up their evolution.
I've heard that there are a fare few aboriginals thankful for that colonialism but they don't get any media attention.

Yeah, multiculturalism really enriched the Native Americans.
Don't get me wrong, I'm glad Columbus came here, but if that's not an argument against immigration I don't know what is.
The American Indians, Incans, and Mayans all loved unchecked illegal immigration, it worked out really well for them. They prospered beyond belief becuase those new immigrants would do all the jobs that they didn't want to do themselves like tend the land, wildlife manage, and clear cut those pesky forests. Sure it was against what the natives all considered the natural law, but it was the new people culture. How could you say no? It is amazing though when you think about Pocahontas really being like a modern-day liberal liking everybody but her own people

Little known fact, Columbus never reached the main land of America. Only the keys and islands outside Central America

There's no such thing as an immigrant anymore. These are hostile invaders who refuse to assimilate.

Assimilation is genocide. Give me hostile invaders over media trained refugees any day. The more whites that realize we're incompatible with niggers and gooks the better. Well adjusted, integrated, taxpaying, non-whites are a much greater threat to white homelands than murderous rapists will ever be.
