Slavery predates capitalism by about as long as tribes predate capitalism.

You say that with some kind of implication of acceptism...

I say that because slavery has nothing to do with capitalism and never has.

Exploitation is Slavery. If you don't a job for some rich asshole, you're dead. Do you just not educate yourself beyond your own comfort? Do you just think than any comfort you chew like tobacco is anything but delusion?

That's nightshade. Come back to reality and spit that the fuck out, now.

How high are you right now lol

Depends what you mean by "high."

So other political and economic systems do not have a history of slaves too? Whenever I see things blaming capitalism for our issues I worry as it means we are no laser focused on the root cause of these sorts of issues…centralized powers getting too big and unchecked no matter their political flavour.
