I don’t care what they call it as long as I get a paid day off.
How can they be indigenous people if they came here from Asia across the Bering Strait?
Just keeping Austin weird.
If Spaniards had not wiped out the Aztecs, there would be no indigenous people left.
I’m Indigenous
Alas, Texas:(
I see potential for wit, here. First thing, be sure to put up the US flag on Columbus Day. If somebody whines about it, tell them it is to celebrate Italian-Americans.
Then ask them, do they hate Italians?
This works really well if you happen to have some Italian in you.
Plus, Americans, not leftists, become more patriotic when they see the flag, and this patriotism reflects well on the Republican party and conservatism. The Democrats get nothing out of it.
I’m. Choctaw. I’m American Indian. I’m offended if you call me indigenous.
Racism is okay as long as it’s whitey who is being attacked.

No Columbus equals no Spanish conquest of Mexico or Central or any part of South America,
equals no Spanish rule in Mexico,
equals no pre or post Spanish colonial caudillo society (as now) in Mexico or the Southwest U.S.,
equals no Mextecs or Aztecs brought north of the Rio Grand as part of Spanish colonial expansion,
equals no false narrative that Mextecs or Aztecs have a “natural right” to be north of the Rio Grande (never had Mextec or Aztec establishments more than 200 miles north of Mexico City, except as part of Spanish colonial conquest),
equals no false narratives to back illegal immigration from south of the U.S. border,
equals “Hispanics” are just dumb to not celebrate Columbus in the U.S., as without him there are no “Hispanics” of the western hemisphere.
I’m an Indignant-American
What about Hispanics hand in Columbus Day? We want to forget that part, don’t they?!
YES! Celebrate indigenous people’s day! where the Comanches tried to negotiate a peace treaty by giving up white captives WHO HAD THEIR FACES BURNED OFF by the Indigenous peoples.

Maybe we could get the Libs to burn their own faces off.
Yes, just think of all the fabulous tortures and mutilations the indigenous pipples could have developed if only Chris C. hadn’t shown up and derailed everything.
