This doesn’t even make sense. What a simplistic view. You can condemn sacrifice without turning Indigenous civilizations into cartoon villains.
The “Aztecs were barbaric so conquest was good” argument always collapses the second you apply the same standard evenly. Human sacrifice existed in Mesoamerica. It should be talked about honestly.
But Europeans arrived from a world of inquisitions, mass burnings, public torture, dynastic slaughter, religious wars, colonial extraction, and industrial-scale conquest. The idea that one side represented “civilization” and the other represented “savagery” is mostly hindsight propaganda. Guess the propaganda got to you.
Also, the “Bronze Age” framing barely works here. Makes me question your understanding of the Americas. Mesoamerican societies developed under completely different environmental and material conditions. They had no large draft animals and simply different metallurgy priorities. Different trade systems. Yet they still built massive cities, hydraulic engineering, aqueduct’s, astronomy, mathematics, calendars, causeways, market systems, and state networks that stunned Europeans on contact.
You don’t have to romanticize the Aztecs to admit the “primitive savage rescued by Europe” framing is historically shallow.
🇺🇸 The American Culturist 🇺🇸@MericaCulture
The great fallacy of cultural relativism is that its adherents believe the technological wonders of our modern world were always inevitable. They believe that Western Civilization (Christendom) pushed humanity forward purely by coincidence, rather than because of anything inherently valuable about it. They look at the barbaric tribes of Mesoamerica, such as the Aztecs, and assume they could have had a Central American Wakanda if not for those oppressive Europeans. In reality, there was a reason the Aztecs hadn't progressed even to the Bronze Age, and if the Europeans hadn't forced civilization upon them, they'd still be ripping out hearts and practicing cannibalism in demonic rituals.

I’ll never understand cruises. Best case, you are a hostage in a mid-tier resort and get to pop off at a Señor Frog’s. Worst case, millions are asking for your ship to be bombed to smithereens to prevent you from returning.

It was for a long time. The Catholic church condemned pagan practices, burned and gutted temples. When European whites decided Greece was the "cradle of western civilization" or whatever bullshit, suddenly Greek religion was softened to a "mythology" and folded into the West

Why is it that African mythology is viewed as witchcraft but Greek mythology isn't?

Kevin O'Leary's massive data center was approved by a county commission in Utah last night. At 40,000 acres, it would be 2.5x the size of Manhattan. The commission approved the proposal despite opposition from hundreds of locals.

@MaskTheMovie Apparently what’s really going on is that he got sepsis from an untested or certified stem cell treatment that other celebrities have also received. A lot of rich people have been getting scammed by doctors who are using stem cell that then make them sick

Never stop saying "dozen" and "half dozen". Never stop using the word you read in an old novella. Never stop using your regional jargon. Don't succumb to an internationalized English stripped of its whimsy and romanticism in the name of streamlining global commerce.
Anon Opin.@anon_opin
I don't understand the point of using the term "dozen". It means 12, so just say 12? It's even worse when people say or type "half a dozen". Just say 6 or six.
