Columbus was a game-changer in world history, yes, but he does not deserve to be celebrated just for that sake. He was a violent and cruel taskmaster whose actions caused the deaths of many native people he came in contact with. Even his own people felt he was too harsh and had him jailed. Here’s just one quick article detailing his horrifically negative side: https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/12/us/christopher-columbus-slavery-disease-trnd/index.html
Guy Fieri, meanwhile, is far more deserving of praise than Columbus ever will be. For starters, his main show is pretty much a highlighting of local businesses to help bring attention to them on a bigger scene. He’s also been a staunch supporter of LGBTQ+ rights, helped feed thousands of people who got caught in the wake of the California fires, and during the COVID-19 quarantine, he’s raised over $25 million dollars to help food workers who lost their job their job thanks to the virus. I dunno about you, but that’s a far better man in my opinion. Columbus may have changed history, but Fieri has actually positively changed lives. Flavortown >>>>> Columbus
