I understand that you probably don't get this as a European but as an American this kind of thing is very real and insidious to this day and has been used to shelve our responsibility for the Native American genocide for our entire history. What Ant is doing is not innocent or honest.

America is responsible for killing millions of Native Americans over the past several centuries in various ways, and the fact that smallpox continued to spread well into the 18th century and beyond was due to that as well. Is that thorough enough for you, Mr. Nazi-fetishist?

Well, Aztec argument only changes one variable - the absence of Europeans coming to North America.
