Do you think Native Americans would agree to define him as an explorer too, then?
But this is accurate. Columbus was an explorer, that was his mission. I’ve read his letters to Spain and he wanted to find bounty for the Spanish crown to convince them to give him more money.
And Adolf Hitler was a politician. That was his “mission”. We don’t define Hitler by his career though.
He murdered, tortured, enslaved kidnapped, interrogated, and raped people to find even more bounty.
I guess he went above and beyond on that mission, yeah? By your definition he seems more like a bounty-hunter/privateer and not an explorer, but worse in every way. (And how is rape supposed to tie into this narrative about his goal of securing more funding anyway?)
But he was an explorer, not a conquistador or conqueror. Those were military positions.
So by your logic, not having a military position pardons any atrocities he committed and waives the reason to call him anything other than “explorer”? He was a butcher and a rapist. That’s a fact.
You don’t need a rank and a hat to become a sanctioned piece of shit. That can happen sans the hat.
“Look, I get it, everyone has a story and contains multitudes and all, but the paperwork from the children’s hospital clearly says he was officially contracted as an “Entertainer and Humorist,” so that’s the title we need to refer to this John Wayne Gacy with. It’s just basic professionalism.”
Your defensiveness betrays your ignorance. That’s my opinion.
No body is pardoning anything, and insinuating that I am invalidates everything you just wrote, embarrasses you, and removes all my interest in talking to you further.
