In their words

The transcript segments this claim was taken from

“If the rebellion had just kept attacking at night.”
“instead of only attacking during day the Spaniards would have never gotten a chance to rest and would have just you know been depleted pretty quickly but instead they would let them rest at night wouldn't use their overwhelming numbers to do rotations that would attack at different times now why I find this confusing is that it's not like the conquistadors arrived at the doorsteps of a bunch of peace-loving hippies who didn't know anything about war”
