I don't know. What do they have to do with Columbus being known as an asshole?
Ah, so that's the part we were at.
Cool.
Headline: "Christopher Columbus was Spanish and Jewish, documentary reveals"
You: "Is that supposed to explain why he was known to be an asshole?"
So if you didn't mean being a Jew explained why he was an asshole, did you mean that being Spanish explained why he was an asshole? Because I can list plenty of non-asshole people from Spain too.
Well, you really didn't understand my comment then. It was a jab at the title.
Does his ancestry change any of his deeds? Nope. So he was part Jew. Whoop-dee-doo. Who cares. Why should it matter?
Looking at the downvotes, I don't think I was the only one who misunderstood, but thank you for clarifying. I agree. It only matters in an academic sense.
Nah, it's fine. Communication is difficult and misunderstandings happen all the time. Can't be helped really since we all have different sets of knowledge and perspective.
If someone misunderstands what you've said, the fault lies with you.
Good communicators know this and take the time to make sure their comments are conveyed accordingly.
An example of why I believe you to be wrong.
