I don't really know the relevance of John Oliver, but I've heard folks going on about him and I did enjoy this bit. It seems like the guy who made this comic and the person that wrote that skit probably read the same books cited

Columbus Day should stay Columbus Day.

Or rename it Day of the Conquering or perhaps Manifest Destiny Day.
