but slavery sucks imo
Replying to PirateMan64 #zytohn except slavery is a lot worse than abortion
irrelevant
my position has always been it should not be illegal, but you should make fun of and stigmatise doing it.
if you do not want a child, do not have sex
I'll be interested what abortion laws look like now
for context, this ruling was because Mississippi passed an abortion ban after 15 weeks (except if your baby is retarded or for health reasons)
eh, states rights are good and all, but the south was also kinda effed

what does relevant mean
kinda sucks tho that the only time a civil war was fought over it was when one side was like that
long-term economic prospect of Slavery, yeah of course it was going to die out eventually
eh, disagree
it did literally everywhere else in the world
(other than current modern day slavery)
you can stop doing slavery without making it illegal
that would be it dying out
i think the main reason you get rid of it on a legislative level is the moral reasons
but chattle slavery was on its way out
the economics soften the blow tho
The Civil War also wasn't about the threat of a slavery ban
that wasn't on the table
it was, and the american south was like the last place to get rid of it, which is why i find the states rights argument kinda eh
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 long-term economic prospect of Slavery, yeah of course it was going to die out eventually
Not just eventually; it wouldn't die out completely, but the advancement of the progress of production would significantly reduce the amount of people enslaved, because there would be far fewer people needed to perform different tasks, and it would quickly become more expensive to have many human slaves than fewer ones using machinery.
they were not the last to get rid of it Zyton
gent is anti slavery because bringing them here was a mistake
slavery still exists in much of the world
Replying to PirateMan64 #zytohn it was, and the american south was like the last place to get rid of it, which is why i find the states rights argument kinda eh
this is objectively and verifiably false
worldwide a lot of slavery continued until the 1880s
well, not the last, i think the turks kinda had it for longer right?
yep, same with a few other places
most of africa too
but when it comes to the west, was there anyone else that did it longer?

Many states in the US allowed for black slaves up to the Civil War; the difference is you had far fewer plantations in the north than the south.
i guess belgium doe
I am sure there were mexican shitholes with slaves post civil war
Replying to Dolfin #dolfinmaster what percent of slave owners in the us were white?
i dunno, 85%?
are you counting the irish as nonwhite
in that stat
wasn't the US like 95% white
Parts of South America and the caribbean
obv much smaller absolute numbers
because much smaller countries
wait
i think dolf doesnt count jews as white
that would explain it
Mexico had slaves until WW1
pfft, caribean is not a real country (Kappa)
but they were native slaves, not Africans
huh, i was pretty sure the catholic church outlawed the slavery of indians in like the 1600s
Replying to PirateMan64 #zytohn but when it comes to the west, was there anyone else that did it longer?
Are we talking about just the Americas? Cuz there was a lot of slavery in Central & South America at the same time and afterward. Dunno about Canada because I know little about Canadian history.
might wanna double check that
these were Myans, not Indians
ok well based on the percentage of white slaveholders, what is the outlook on the identity of the supreme court leaker
and they were crossbred with Chinese railroad workers
to create a new race
so it was like a loophole lmao
Replying to PirateMan64 #zytohn huh, i was pretty sure the catholic church outlawed the slavery of indians in like the 1600s
That was after they saw chell from el dorado
and sorry
Aztec, not Myan
WAIT
I didn't know this
the United states helped quell a slave revolt in Mexico, in the 1890s
i also did not know that spooky
