Personally be fine with the day not having any holiday at all, but I get the sentiment of Indigenous people.
Anyone who defends celebrating Columbus baffles me. He was a monster. He murdered and raped and enslaved thousands. He did nothing out of bravery, he did it out of greed and malice.
You are right nothing will ever make "right" the imperialistic attitudes that led to mass genocide of native peoples across the Americas. All we can do now is be respectful to people and never forget what happened.
