So I brought in doughnuts today to celebrate Columbus Day. I do this every October 12.

Now all the fat liberals have to either (1) avoid celebrating with a doughnut, or (2) give in and enjoy the sugar while supporting colonialism.

This really is one of my favorite holidays - just watching the struggle.

The history of Columbus day is fascinating - and those who have beef with colonialism should take a few minutes to understand what the day actually is (but they never will). It all started because of a mass arrest of Italians in New Orleans in the 1890's that ended up having people march on the jail and lynch 11 of them. (no way! it wasn't only blacks who were oppressed and lynched?!?)

Long story short, they chose Columbus to rally behind because he was Italian and a fundamental part of American history (meaning that Italians also played a key role in the formation of the United States). At the time, Columbus was the logical choice. But now, we love to judge the past with a modern lens...

Even more fun and political: In 2021, Indigenous People's Day was federally recognized by Biden through official proclamation. Trump did not continue the practice. Some states and tribal nations also recognize this. No legislation has been able to survive congress either.

We all agree that Columbus was an explorer, colonizer and occupier. So were the American Indians. (the 2nd and 3rd wave were also occupiers).

I think it's pretty clear though that the Italians were not the best of us…

In 1776 there were about four Italians in the entire hemisphere, and one of them was just sending letters to Jefferson trying to sell him wine.

You guys didn't show up until the country was already built, spent forty years running bootleg liquor and fighting each other in the street and pouring concrete over people who didn't pay up.

This place was up and running for 120 years before you guys even started showing up.

I love pasta and pizza too, bro, but calm down ;-)

Let us start with the obvious. Italy (an thus Italians) was not a country until 1861. Before that people from the Italian peninsula were Genovese (Columbus), Venetian, Neapolitan, Sicilian, Roman etc. "Italians" are very diverse, to see this just travel to Italy.

The Italian states played a crucial role in defending Christian Europe from Ottoman expansion approximately two centuries prior to the American Revolution, most notably at the Battle of Lepanto in 1571. Without the military contributions and strategic efforts of Italian powers, the religious and cultural landscape of Europe would have been fundamentally altered, which would have subsequently affected the development of Christian British colonies in the New World.

One should never forego a doughnut.
Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

If you think the office fatties gave this any critical thought beyond "free donuts" you're probably giving them too much credit.

I have noticed more direct Columbus Day references again. Ive been up in DC and NYC and the parades and weather and news are only referencing Columbus Day. Now we just need Apple to take Indigenous peoples day off calendar and people will forget about it. Haha.

What happens when October 12 isn't the second Monday in October? Is it weird then since it's not actually Columbus Day that year?

The extremist Islamics (is there any other kind?) are to thank for Columbus Day. They were raising the trade routes, turning everyone into slavers, and killing the rest so Italy was trying to find new trade routes. Per usual, that's left out of history.

No connection, except the dilemma that a stereotypical overweight office leftist voter would be torn between the desire to stuff calories down their pie hole at someone else's expense and the knowledge they are betraying one of their rote ideological narratives by consuming food gifted celebrating a "historic oppressor".

It was the largest single-day mass lynching in American history and yet the National Memorial for Peace and Justice (aka the Lynching Museum) makes no mention of this day.
