Comments by "J B" (@amandab.recondwith8006) on "What is The Oldest House in Texas? (Spanish Governor's Palace)" video.
I toured this place along with the Alamo back in the 80s and 90s when I lived in Texas. We often drove over to San Antonio from Houston to enjoy the River Walk and stay in some of the lovely hotels. However, what the narrator doesn't talk about is how the Spanish were cruel and inhumane colonizers. They enslaved the natives and prolonged the Inquisition in their colonies, persecuting or executing anyone who wasn't Catholic. They were fascists, religious zealots, despotic dictators, and terrible land managers. The present-day Hispanics in San Antonio are lovely people with an exciting culture and cuisine. I loved going there.
