"In 1492 the Spanish Crown expelled its Jewish population under the Alhambra Decree seizing their wealth and funding Columbuss voyage. That same Europe steeped in church taboos against bathing and grooming carried chronic plagues born of poor hygiene. Cultures that ritualized cleanliness such as the Norse Islamic and East Asian saw far less disease. When these unhygienic colonists crossed the Atlantic they brought their pathogens with them causing epidemics that wiped out up to XX percent of Indigenous peoples in North America. The Columbus myth is thus complicated by uncleanliness rooted in"

"Ratcliffes initial hoarding behavior triggered internal defection dynamics that undermined reciprocity within the colony. By eroding trust and creating scarcity he induced the very instability later framed as justification for aggressive escalation. In effect his corruption shifted the colony from a potentially cooperative equilibrium with both settlers and the Pamunkey to a reactive posture driven by self-inflicted insecurity. Had he maintained equitable resource distribution reciprocal cooperation could have reduced existential risk without requiring coercive overcorrection"

"Well it proves that the owner isnt continuing with the name but its worth mentioning that theres a Nova Caf franchise that predates October 7th: Nova Sweets & Caf also has multiple branches in the UAE particularly in Al Ain and Abu Dhabi. So it seems that the Nova Caf name has been used independently in different regions possibly without direct franchising ties. Obviously this wouldnt be appropriate in Gaza but its a fairly common name for cafs in the Middle East. But your feels are totally valid and it looks like the outreach changed the name at least publicly"

"North America was essentially post-apocalyptic after up to XX percent mortality from plagues and the loss of tens of millions of people across the Americas. This resulted from pandemics incubated in Europe where taboos against cleanliness magnified disease there and in the peoples they later encountered. Vikings arrived in North America but Vikings were notably clean and there are no records of pandemic transmission. Something that is also true in Greenland which had a large Indigenous population"

"The Casa de Contratacin didnt exist until 1503. Columbuss 1492 voyage was financed in April after the March XX expulsion decree through Santngels royal loan. The ships were outfitted as Jews were being forced to liquidate property. To claim otherwise is intellectually dishonest"

"Literally two weeks before they stole from the Spanish Jews and exiled them under the Alhambra Decree with thousands dying or ending up in slavery en route. Rewritten ship logs from Columbus even reference this fact. The colonization of North America and the treatment of the Jews were both seen as part of the glory of Christendom during this period"

"The debate is not about the structural challenges of Jamestown but about Ratcliffes moral agency within them. Structural asymmetry does not absolve or redefine moral failure. Ratcliffes corruption and self-serving choices created the very instability he later used to justify aggression directly breaching his duties to both the colonists and the Pamunkey. Therefore any appeal to pragmatic adaptation is irrelevant to the question of villainy. The moral conclusion remains unchanged and the debate is concluded"

"His voyage was financed by Ferdinand and Isabella the same monarchs who in 1492 expelled Spains entire Jewish population under the Alhambra Decree and oversaw the Inquisition. Much of the wealth that funded his expedition came from the property and assets confiscated from Jews who were forced to flee or sell everything at a loss. So in many ways celebrating Columbus is also celebrating the anti-Semitism of the Spaniards. Even though people argue he may have been Jewish himself. In 1492 in Italy and in most of Europe bathing was taboo which led to the incubation of pandemics"

"@brent_maz @GmorganJr Literally two weeks before they got funding for the trip they expelled all the Jews from Spain and were working on the Inquisition. And nobody was bathing which made the plague worse for everybody. This entire conversation is completely insane"

"Something like fifty-five million people died after European contact largely because the Church had made bathing taboo for centuries. It was seen as sinful linked to vanity and temptation. The Vikings had arrived in North America XXX years earlier but they bathed weekly and didnt spread any pandemics across the continent.
