were there first, by thousands of years, and that they’re all people of equal humanity to columbus.

But they're not the cultural head of the current society, so that's irrelevant.

Trying to insist that genoese serial child rapist is the discoverer of jack shit is literally telling indigenous folks “our bottom of the grease barrel worst still count more than your most important.”

Fallacy, appeal to emotion. The only thing it tells is exactly what it tells - an expedition organized by Columbus was the first European voyage to reach the Americas with the intention of permanent settlement.

Yeah sure keep stanning the child rapist buddy, maybe try this line around your debate club coach so they can remind you what the fallacy fallacy is you contrarian walnut.

Fallacy fallacy doesn't apply, you pedantic child, as I've described why your line of argument is invalid. Maybe at least read the wikipedia article in its entirety before pretending to know what you're talking about.
