I can’t (and won’t) make you read the book — you will have to do it on your own initiative. But if you did, that Tweet would have never arisen in your thoughts. -NDT

You should be grateful for "dicks" like Columbus. It's people like him that got things done. It was and 500 some odd years ago, dude. Give him a break.

My tweet was an If/then sentence, conveying no opinion of my own. Although you surely agree it was a dick move. That being said, Columbus may be the single most important person in world history, for reasons not commonly cited. Am writing that up now. -NDT

"Looking more reasons to conclude that Christopher Columbus was a dick? Look no further:" That sounds awfully a lot like a judgement to me. I am curious about why you say he was the single most important person in history. Do tell.

Of course he was a dick. He did horrible things in the name of Catholicism and the Crown. Let’s not forget his men spreading all sorts of diseases in the New World. Instead of having a holiday for something Columbus never did, we should name an STD vaccine after him

We're so close to start rewriting history books to make look everything more politically correct... "Christine Columbus, a Trans asian lesbian, arrives to America in 1492, an immediately became friends with the natives and everybody was happy until Trump got elected"
