@Timstillherelol or, more apt, since he’s a Spaniard, that the entire Al-Andalus period isn’t Spanish history because the Spaniards slaughtered and displaced the Iberian Muslims.
@Timstillherelol in a vacuum, politics aside, it’s such a strange form of pedantry.
it’s like saying Roman Britain isn’t part of English history because the Saxons came along and murdered & displaced most of the Britons.
@Lagiacrus206 you’re Spanish. Would you make the absurdist claim that Al-Andalus isn’t part of your history because the Spaniards killed and expelled most of the Muslims and the descendants of Muslims the Spaniards had previously forced to convert to Christianity?
@svgmzr@ArthurBoreman yeah but that was mostly for barbaric treatment of other Spaniards in Hispaniola and much less about his barbaric treatment of the indigenous population. Columbus was also particularly heinous among Spanish New World officials/military leaders, a lot more got away with less.
@codingfodder@Robotbeat yeah because all of the formidable indigenous civilizations in America existed south of the Rio Grande. More people, higher degrees of organization, higher economic complexity, actual empires, etc. tribes in what is now US/CA were more scattered and less populous
@luhshmanky@NewJohnPACity the qualities the OP deemed “racist tropes” are:
Being angry
Being verbally abusive
Being an alcoholic
honestly if you view these as stereotypically black character flaws I suspect you may be the one motivated by racial animus, pal
@luhshmanky@NewJohnPACity fine, just don’t be surprised if people stop casting black actors for characters that are flawed. if you want sanitarism, you’ll get it!
@JamesRaxz “The last remnants of the Old Republic have been swept away.” - Tarkin on the dissolution of the Senate.
certainly heavily, heavily implies it
@twink_death he didn’t invent lynching, the term Lynch Law comes from a revolution-Era kangaroo court and his court was about punishing Loyalists (typically not by hanging) & was entirely unrelated to race.
so, not really
@beyondreasdoubt why can’t donald trump set politics aside and take his face off of everything to do with the 250th? Why is the onus here on regular citizens and not the president of the united states, exactly?
@MaxfieldStandIn@jc40k1@TsuchinokoT_H yeah at least your soul is obliterated/subsumed by Big E or whatever. infinitely better than actually dying in 40k
