@ElamBend @mnolangray Beyond Germs specifically mentions the issues with earlier estimates of Mississippi Valley Indian estimates and details the brutality of the Florida mission system

[Third Rome 🗽 @RomeInTheWest]

@ElamBend @mnolangray Yeah so contemporary historiography argues against the older population estimates. Disease outbreaks were more often than not linked to Spanish colonization.

Historiography goes against the virgin soil hypothesis. Not only the book I mentioned but others like Beyond Germs

@ElamBend @mnolangray Europeans were not immune from the plague and millions died. The difference is Europeans were not all subject to centuries of slavery, displacement and genocide.

[Third Rome 🗽 @RomeInTheWest]

@ElamBend @mnolangray What sources are you using? From the historiography I’ve seen (like the above book) historians and epidemiologists have been pushing back on this premise of disease outbreaks occurring independently of Spanish conquest.

@Paepaok_ @Divineauklet @AlZENSOSUKE @lymanstoneky @mnolangray Yep saying concentration camp victims died of typhus is an excuse used by Holocaust deniers.

@hemingquay @mnolangray What’s the concern with human sacrifice if we’re seemingly ok with mass slavery and extermination

[Third Rome 🗽 @RomeInTheWest]

@Paepaok_ @Divineauklet @AlZENSOSUKE @lymanstoneky @mnolangray I personally lay quite a bit of blame on Ja’Rod Diamond and how popular Guns Ferms and Steel became in the pop history sphere

[Third Rome 🗽 @RomeInTheWest]

@Divineauklet @AlZENSOSUKE @lymanstoneky @mnolangray Disease did not happen independently of Spanish colonization. The Spanish engaged in mass slavery and forced removals. They also engaged in conflicts for centuries against Amerindians. All these contributed to the spread of disease

[Third Rome 🗽 @RomeInTheWest]

@ElamBend @mnolangray A lot of the deaths are secondary to the Spanish centuries of war against the Amerindians and mass enslavement. War, slavery and displacement all make the spread of disease must easier.

@hemingquay @mnolangray Replacing human sacrifice with wholesome mass slavery and extermination!

@briebriejoy So instead of Democractic entryism we get bourgeois politics entryism, which is like only a few steps removed from the former

@CMNantashaW @notchrisvolpe You say voter turnout remained largely unchanged in your area when you got almost 250% more votes in 2025 than 2023

Glad you didn’t rank Cuomo

@Socdem_Michael @StatisticUrban 1 in 150 Americans is incarcerated but we’re more concerned about policy positions DAC isn’t even running on over mass incarceration

@mrbeastsqidgame @sam_d_1995 The J/Z platforms were a major transfer point when it was first built. It isn’t now which is part of why the station’s degraded so much
