Oh my god my annoying 14 year old brother has political sense

I loaned him my copy of Zinn's People's history of the US over the weekend because he has to read something, or he wanted to I forgot. So I saw the book when I talked with him today, I asked him well what did you think? he says he liked it, and we discussed at great length how Christopher Columbus's myth and legend is a bunch of bullshit, that he was no hero that he in fact paved the way for genocide and I thought he was too ignorant to realize that.

when you realize your younger brother isn't so useless after all. I remember that day, back in 1980-something.

He still annoys the shit of me but it's nice to have some discussion with him, our music tastes differ too, even as I have started to diversify my music choice.
