I don't know why we're talking about the Black Legend, but I urge you to ignore this soyboy. The Black Legend is a bunch of bullshit created by the Dominican Friars compelling de Las Casas to turn on Spain and Columbus. "Ethics hearings" my ass.
It was a gay subversive powerplay by the papacy and the Medicis, as Pope Clement the VII was born Giulio di Giuliano de' Medici. There was a real threat of Spain taking the Romagna after Pope Alexander (a Borgia) was so friendly to Spain. So in an attempt to undermine the Spanish Empire and reaffirm the idea that the Americas were a gift from the papacy, they sent Dominican Friars to the Hacienda of De Las Casas, accused him of genocide and war crimes that are clearly based off European conflict and were impossible to carry out in America at that time, and forced him to repent and become rebaptized as a Dominican, which meant loyalty to the new Medici Pope. It was also part of a broader effort to get closer to France, now that Habsburg holdings flanked both sides of the Romagna, following the imprisonment of Juana the Mad. This is something the Habsburgs went along with, because the lords of Spain were not particularly fond of Charles V after the death of Miguel Da Paz, as the Habsburgs essentially replaced the Trastamara dynasty, and Charles father, Philip the Handsome, was a massive piece of shit to his mother, Juana the Mad. She had the loyalty of the actual people.
Basically its fake and gay, House Habsburg let the Pope slander their own imperial holdings to consolidate power and affirm themselves as the righteous rulers who would set things right. But of course the woke faggot thinks it was totally a legitimate ethics hearings, claiming they were carrying European-style mass executions in totally undeveloped land, because of course they were.
Don't you know Dutch masters who hated Spain painted paintings of it, despite never having seen America? Definitely not a propaganda circus at all.
