For me it helps clear the mind and assists with the debugging of the mental pollution. Columbus of course did not discover America and he never set foot in the United States. Even if the perpetrated lie was contrived to say that Columbus discovered the Caribbean that would have been a little better , kind of a like a white lie? Be it white lies or forked tongues, and regardless of whether the native population on today's turtle island is 1% or 1/10th of 1% today's descendants might not receive reparations but at the very least we can de-clutter our minds and remember correctly the past. Who knows, perhaps our current and future actions may become better inspired in doing so.
