There's so much hate in those replies I don't fully get it. It's not like Columbus was American. Why are they so upset? They sound like someone just spat in their face. I get chuds having a reaction like this to insulting Washington or one of their other favorite slavers but I didn't think fucking Columbus was this important to them. I might be overthinking this.

Columbus is basically Jesus to Amerikkkan “Italians”

He discovered America, that's what he did. He was a brave Italian explorer. And in this Lemmy instance, Christopher Columbus is a hero. End of story.

And as always, the writers making fun of people who support columbus (dumbshit american italians vs. native italians like furio who hate columbus and northern italy) goes over chuds heads.

The Sopranos is the Simpsons but with deadbeat italian-american men, I don't get how people see it as a crime drama or some anti-woke manosphere crap.
