He started trading, left a bunch of dudes to build a settlement and went back to Spain.
When he came back he found them all dead.
That's when shit went downhill.
The "someone else would have done it" refers to the fact that the land would have been found sooner or later, the fairy tale that "they would still live in peace if it wasn't for him" is bull, because again,if not him someone else would have.
Not to mention, they did not live in peace. There was a lot of war among tribes and they would enslave one another, too.
I'm not saying we should idolize him but of all historical figures he's one of the ones getting shat on the most while not having done more than others. Like damn what should we say about Genghis Kahn then? Bro literally used bio weapons.
