Anyway why did they have to refer to native americans as indians....

@meeper that's what they thought they were. by the time they realized they weren't in india, they'd already gotten used to calling them indians. inertia.

@meeper you can call them red indians, feather indians, amerindians, injuns, casino americans, tomahawk americans, or the men of the autochthonous tribes of america to be specific.

@HatkeshiatorTND if only columbussy had his ship sunk in a storm (or idk the norsemen actually stayed long enough for folk to finally adopt metalurgy, and maybe an enough buffer for them to gain immunity from smallpox or that idiot who somehow kept getting lucky didnt start being a chud)

@HatkeshiatorTND yeah I mean ofc, a group of people in a region larger than like 4 europes are not going to a single contiguos group.

Also partially related but the american independance wars were one reason brits were more chuddy here (they were forbidden from marrying into here lest they actually gain some attatchement to theland and start revolting)

@meeper "but we're, all rhodesians and we'll fight through thick and thin..."

@HatkeshiatorTND tbh it was the same here, pampered basterds fought for the pampered bastard empire

@meeper kept getting lucky and started being a chud...? not sure who you're referring to.
yes, i wish north germanic peoples had taken over the americas instead of invading england. then harold cyning would have triumphed at hastings and we'd all be speaking wilsum engelisc.

@meeper rhodesians foight against the empire brother.

@HatkeshiatorTND fair idk anything and currently just pissed at everything keeping this countey an unfixable mess so I cant think staright

@meeper play swatz or install 9front

@HatkeshiatorTND Such a massive artificially assimilated country is unnatural and makes itself a natural tyrant.

sometjing sometjing worldly balance ans colonization was what created globomo

@HatkeshiatorTND referring to that guy who spain called back after they realized colonies were unprofitable messes and then disobeyed the royaliu or whatever and fucked around a lot but just kept on getting lucky

can't remember the exact details that well and don't have the brain to spare rn actually articulating what I onow

@meeper even the chinese sandnigger has no idea what you're talking about

That sounds like Eduardo Mondlane, or possibly Amílcar Cabral — but the clearest match is a lesser-known figure: Henri Labit? No.

Actually, the story you’re recalling is likely about Mário Pinto de Andrade or Agostinho Neto? Not quite.

The most precise fit: Samora Machel? No — he returned to lead FRELIMO.

After checking: The person is Eduardo Mondlane — but the detail about “government abandoned colonialism and called him back but he didn’t return” doesn’t fit perfectly.

However, a strong candidate is Jean-Bédel Bokassa? No.

Given your description, you may be thinking of João de Sá Coutinho (unlikely) or perhaps mixing facts about Amílcar Cabral. Cabral, a Bissau-Guinean/Cape Verdean revolutionary, was asked by the Portuguese (after the 1974 Carnation Revolution when Portugal abandoned colonialism) to return and cooperate, but he had been assassinated in 1973 — so not that.

Actually, the closest is Holden Roberto or Jonas Savimbi? No — they fought.

But your specific case — “government told him to come back, he refused, stayed put” — fits Kanyama Chiume? Not quite.

The correct answer is likely Nicolae Labiș? Unlikely.

Given the phrasing, you might be thinking of Corneliu Coposu? No.

But the real figure: Petre Țuțea? No.

Let’s settle: This is a known story about Vladimir Prelog — but he was a scientist.

Given the lack of an exact match, the most probable person you have in mind is Amílcar Cabral — he didn’t return to Portuguese-controlled territory after they changed policy, though he was killed before that change. If not, please give more details — nation, time period — and I can pinpoint exactly.

Final answer guess: Amílcar Cabral (or possibly a conflation of decolonization figures).

this is after removing the details about it being a spaniard and him being in america, both of which only confused the sandnigger more.

@meeper nevermind, tried with detail "south america" and got:
```
You’re thinking of Lope de Aguirre — the Spanish conquistador who led a notorious rebellion in South America. After being called back by Spanish authorities, he refused, declared independence from the Spanish Crown, and went on a violent rampage through the Amazon. His story is famous for the quote, “I am the Wrath of God.”
