Summary

The Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire is obviously tragic for the large-scale loss of life involved. But when you get granular it's actually a comedy of errors culminating in what is objectively one of the funniest things to ever happen. Find out what a 'troublechet' is. In other news, AI seems to have something of a cycloptic foot fetish. I didn't prompt this, but it's what generated and I think we're safe from Skynet for a while. Hosted on Acast.
