You have to kinda suspend your disbelief a little bit when watching the show, especially since its based in Los Angeles, in reality one of the most corrupt and racist police forces on the planet. IRL they would never go after rich socialites in the way Columbo does.
Luckily in the show there’s barely any presence from his higher ups, you get the feeling that they just let this magic murder-solving troll do his thing and never interfere.
Yep, the Dutch, who lived in peace with the natives for ages. But then the Brits, decending mainly from the bloodthirsty Vikings of course had to fuck everyting up. That’s why yall speak English and have a total moron as a leader.
partly. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_people but the evil part is moreso caused by the bloodthirsty scandinavian influence and the greed and hatred between people living on an (small) island.

Always upvote Columbo! (But Not Columbus)
I’m begging someone with a good columbo meme stash to make a community here. I need more of them.
Not meme related, but have you seen Watch it for Days on YT (or similar)?
She makes incredible deep dives into columbo episodes: https://www.youtube.com/@WatchitforDays
I haven’t, but that sounds like my jam. Thx!
Lemmy would be the perfect place for it, too. Columbo is a working class hero.
Good Idea

Columbo on your instance
Thx, subbed.
Reading “Peoples History of the United States” by Howard Zinn and you realize America has always been a country runned by pieces of shit.
I also highly suggest Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz - An indigenous people’s history of the US.
That and Sakai - Settlers, would probably make the overall 3 best comprehensive US history textbooks.
Columbo my love
ACAB should always come with a single exception: Columbo.
A man of the people, who only puts rich assholes behind bars.

I often fall asleep watching Columbo on Jellyfin. It’s a nice, calming, make-believe world where elite douchebags get their just deserts.
Indeed, the only copaganda I can stand.
Whoopsie
“We’ll fix that”
I say every year: Replace Columbus day with Columbo day and replace all statues of Columbus with
Our favorite proletarian

Brits descended from Germans, that’s where they got their evil gene

Anglo and Saxons, both Germs.
Even their royals are Von Saxen-Gotha (Windsor is invented)
