Real anti slav hours
They're not sending their best, folks. (except me, I'm the one exception)
(Pls no bully, am not serious)
Amerigo Vespucci and Christopher Columbus were not English. 😏 but they were white Europeans. It was i the divine plan that this continent would be discovered and settled by white Europeans ! This was the promised land
Chris Columbus never even got to North America lol
He hung around the Caribbean
Francis Drake did tho
Leif Erikson did so long before those guys.
Columbus is still a hero. See: https://www.amazon.com/Enemies-Christopher-Columbus-Thomas-Bowden/dp/1889439363
I'm not argueing with that.
Leif Erikson was Norwegian. People tend to ignore that Icelanders didn't really exist as a peoples yet
yup
Iceland was very recently settled at the time, right?
i believe so
There were also Norse people living in Greenland at the time- who were actually there before the Inuit.
Before the Inuit, but not the Dorset (who the Inuit displaced when they moved Eastward)
Inuit murdered them though. :(
IE members downplaying the role Columbus played is troubling considering IE held events across the country on Columbus Day weekend
Leif Erikson doesn't get enough credit but that's probably because he didn't leave any lasting colonies or anything that least to lasting colonies.
yup
@Grayson Isn't that what Brigham Young and most early Mormons believed?
@Grayson I agree.
Remember that Trump officially made Lief Erikson day a thing tho
@ophiuchus Really?
Man, if only the Iberians had behaved like the English in their colonization
We could have a White Hemisphere
i know
@Virgil I cannot answer your question because we’re not allowed to talk about religion or doctrines
"IE downplaying Columbus"
>IE accurately discussing the history of Columbus is downplaying
bro lol
Seems like there's a danger of going too far in defining an in group. What if one day white Pennsylvanians decide they're a separate ethnicity and want their PA Deitsch ethnostate or something? What if Southerners decide they're another ethnicity? Could get ridiculous. Gotta have a happy medium between total globalism and getting too suspicious of outsiders. Any white European is my own blood. If they wanna come here, in reasonable numbers, and commit to our way of life, fine with me.
I really can only imagine what reading this has to feel like to our enemies. It has an extremely "triumphalist" tone, which is pretty cool imo.
lol
@Ald The Spanish colonized areas with tens of millions of amerindians, the English colonized places with only a few hundred thousand amerindians
Leif Eriksson had little impact on the North American continent and no impact on Europe. Columbus was the first time a permanent link was established from the Americas to Europe. Leif Eriksson did not establish any link after he left Newfoundland
@ophiuchusit wasn't easy turning these lands into what they are today. And in a short time.
@ophiuchus Indeed. It would probably feel terrifying to them.
It's really nothing short of amazing @Josh M. -OH
