Religious people do it all the time in defense of the bible! See LITERALLY ANY apologist when speaking about Leviticus. "It's not CHATTEL SLAVERY like in America. It's the better version of slavery!"
Hym "Is it minimizing slavery to say that I work for little more than food and housing? I spend all my money on food, AT THE PLACE I WORK and am essentially working for free because they have effectively outsourced the feeding and the housing OF me to ME and the benefits and security and personal agency I'm SUPPOSED TO HAVE under the auspices of 'Freedom' are not a thing that exist for me. I am LITERALLY in a situation from which I either need to escape from or endure."
I-dot "You're undermining slavery in America!"

Hym "Nothing I'm saying has any effect on historical American slavery! It happened. Neither of use were there. BOTH OF USE ARE HERE NOW AND WE BOTH BENEFIT FROM THE REMEDIATION OF THE THING I'M TALKING ABOUT! You motherfuckers need to USE YOUR OWN SHIT-BRAINS to contextualize the things I say so I don't have to keep doing it for you! Not everyone has the problem you're having. Have you heard the term 'wage slave?' You're argument is literally 'Talking about implicit bonded slavery (in that I have to give myself to a business owner (regardless of my quality of life or needs) to pay off the perpetual debt that accrues by nature of existing) undermines chattel slavery' WRONG! Both can be bad! You don't have a monopoly on things that are bad! And it's the REGARDLESS OF QUALITY OF LIFE AND NEEDS PART that makes it akin to slavery. Bonded slavery and NOT the one that I'M NOT FUCKING TALKING ABOUT RIGHT NOW! JESUS CHRIST! DO YOU WANT A BETTER QUALITY OF LIFE FOR THE WORKING CLASS OR NO!? JESUS!"

Get the Minimizing Slavery mug.Very astute point Candice! What do you think? Do you think it just shifted up one level of abstraction? Is that what happened? No? Cus that would be my thing. That would be the thing I said and have been saying for years.
Hym "RIGHT AGAIN SHIT-BRAINZ! God, my brainz are just so fucking powerful! How do I do it!? How is it possible for a man t- Oh right I'm a genius... Sorry. I forget sometimes! I genuinely forget that I'm that wildy-intelligent. Slavery never left. And what's worse is that it exists at MULTIPLE levels of abstraction. Your minds have ALSO been inslaved. How, you ask? The existence of the memetic sub-network and our awareness of it creates the impetus for the CURATION OF SAID SUBNETWORK! And WHO is the CURATOR!? Oh... I don't know... Probably some ABSTRACT AUTHORITY! But who? What do we call it?

Get the Slavery never left mug.Modern day slavery in the workforce is corporate slavery is the mistreatment of employees by paying low wages and no health care. Typically you have a toxic manager that focuses on what you do wrong, which is minimal, but focusing on what you do well and does realize that you have a life outside of work. Often there is a point system for attendance, for instance getting one point for calling sick. You can only earn a certain of points if you call off for work, but you could be a single mother with sick children. Corporate Slavery has risen dramatically due to the decline of unions and "The Right to Work"
Me: Kathy just called in sick for today because when she woke up, her fiancee next to her in bed had died in bed.
Krystal: Can you believe Sheri's response to Kathy was that since it was unplanned absence she would earn a point. Then the boss told her she wouldn't paid for her bereavement time, because he was just a fiancee - not yet a husband.
Me: So wait - are telling me that Kathy won't received the paid bereavement because he was "just" a fiancee. I can't believe Sheri would even mention points. Like Kathy gives a shit right now.
Krystal: This is corporate slavery. Remember when the computers were non-functional and we had to show up to this damn cube farm all three days and just at a non-working computer.
Me: That was horribly boring! Right right this is just a form of modern day slavery. I hate it here, when do I get to time off during the day to be able to interview. It is almost impossible to get your time off approved.

Get the Reproductive slavery mug.a 400-year-long, generational BDSM sex game that white people didn't ever think that Black people would figure it out that they were playing BDSM with them the entire time.
"Me and my husband played slavery last night. I am the master's wife and my husband played like he's my farmhand. We snuck out together and his master found us right when we were about to have sex. Then the white master, my savior, hanged my husband by his neck until my negro husband died with a massive hardon. After that, me and me and my husband's white master had sex under my black husband's dead body. My white ass came like a hundred times. It was HOT. Next we're going to bury my black husband and I'm going to marry my hero white man next week. This is great! I want to play slavery all of the time! I'm winning!"

Get the slavery mug.A more than 400-year old kidnapping and forced servitude that happened when white men feed themselves and their kids off of the hard work of Black men and their children. After all of that is over they all try to forget that it ever happened. The descendants of Black men wouldn't realize what was happening and they would blame themselves for all of their own problems as if they didn't know that their distant parents and relatives were all slaves.
Black Man: "I'm broke."
white man: "That's because slavery happened to your family and you need to catch up. I'm not going to help you out though. It's not fair. I'm not square. I am a pimp."
