    Slavery actually exists today in modern societies, it is just that we are in denial. For instance, the UK has Work Fare which is in essence a form of slavery. Prison populations are for profit and are full of contemporary slaves. It was easy for people to justify slavery just as it is now. It is just that you don't come out and call it slavery in the 21st century.

    In an age of central banking and rampant corruption and inequality, yes we are! Who really wants to work 40 hours a week in an office. It isnt down to choice.

    The government are the plantation owners and the police force and military are the whip...

    It's like... "I don't wanna be a slave to you guys anymore" and they're like... "well welcome to prison".

    The question was in regards to slavery in the deep south.
    Not globally.
    All's lost! Everything's going to shit!

    Well, I think you have to look at slavery throughout history to understand it. Still, I blame the British.

    Why would you need to look at historical slavery to understand how it was used in the south?

    Even if true, that doesn't mean one should have more to say about British, African, or Martian slavery, then about Said topic...slavery in the deep south.


    How did southerners justify it?
    Did they use socialism to justify it? Atheism? communism? Agnostic? Political? Religion?

    And by all means no need to be brief, feel free to elaborate.
    Especially anyone on this board who lives in the south.
    Teach us.
