legally they couldn’t be bound

2020-10-24 05:34:01 UTC  

for a while the compromise was the pro slave people had their states the Old South and the pro-white states had the Old North, but then of course the South betray America because a Republican get elected and during the war the slaves are freed since the institution of slavery transfer over to the enemy regime which was soundly defeated

2020-10-24 05:34:06 UTC  

slavery is just so fucked to begin with

2020-10-24 05:34:09 UTC  

Like owning a human

2020-10-24 05:34:13 UTC  

indentured servitude has always ben around

2020-10-24 05:34:16 UTC  

but that's kinda different

2020-10-24 05:34:23 UTC  

Very different

2020-10-24 05:34:27 UTC  

it is a form of slavery i guess, but it's more transactional

2020-10-24 05:34:36 UTC  

They received land after their time was up for awhile

2020-10-24 05:34:40 UTC  

ie: buy me a boat ticket to Murica and I serve you for 5 years

2020-10-24 05:34:41 UTC  

Got to live normal life’s

2020-10-24 05:34:46 UTC  

a common bargain for European immigrants

2020-10-24 05:34:46 UTC  

lives*

2020-10-24 05:35:11 UTC  

Slavery though, I couldn’t imagine being born into it I’d rather kill myself

2020-10-24 05:35:27 UTC  

i could imagine if i was born into it i could be okay with it

2020-10-24 05:35:50 UTC  

but going from being born free and noble, i couldn't bear it

2020-10-24 05:35:57 UTC  

the african slaves wasnt stolen from africa

2020-10-24 05:36:03 UTC  

Humans know they shouldn’t be bound at night and work and whipped

2020-10-24 05:36:09 UTC  

No matter if your born into it or not

2020-10-24 05:36:09 UTC  

they was bought and paid for and sold to europeans by other africans

2020-10-24 05:36:15 UTC  

well of coruse they weren't stolen, that's not slavery works

2020-10-24 05:36:19 UTC  

they were sold

2020-10-24 05:36:39 UTC  

W no consent

2020-10-24 05:36:44 UTC  

More like kidnapping sorry

2020-10-24 05:36:48 UTC  

no that's not true

2020-10-24 05:36:57 UTC  

Bow

2020-10-24 05:36:58 UTC  

How

2020-10-24 05:36:59 UTC  

one of the arguments to end slavery too, which NO ONE EVER MENTIONS

2020-10-24 05:37:05 UTC  

like most slaves in history, they were the captured people by other tribes or by the muslim empires

2020-10-24 05:37:06 UTC  

is that it wasnt taxable labor

2020-10-24 05:37:25 UTC  

it's very common when you win a war you enslave the people, if you don't massacre them that is

2020-10-24 05:37:48 UTC  

most ppl who worked for a paycheck, worked more then the average slave alot of the times

2020-10-24 05:38:03 UTC  

I know I’m just saying there wasn’t consent they were in Africa then the next year in America

2020-10-24 05:38:06 UTC  

one of the arguments to end slavery was so they would become more productive and it would be taxable labor

2020-10-24 05:38:13 UTC  

the more powerful african tribes or the muslim sultanates in the areas would simply prevail in war over other african tribes and enslave them dispersing them through their own kingdoms and/or sellign them to other empires and nations

2020-10-24 05:38:48 UTC  

the cotton gin also made having slaves moot in some ways as well

2020-10-24 05:39:16 UTC  

theamericans buy black slaves because it was seen as unethical to enslave fellow whites and to enslave semites, but because of the curse of Canaan, and because of the primitiveness of their cultures, it was seen as okay to enslave the Hamites

2020-10-24 05:39:43 UTC  

It’s also crazy how people used the Bible back then to defend slavery

2020-10-24 05:39:58 UTC  

well the cotton gin came way later as well as cotton, cotton was actually only a cash crop for the period immediately before the civil war

2020-10-24 05:40:07 UTC  

Canaan was cursed to be servants of servants so

2020-10-24 05:40:14 UTC  

before cotton most slaves worked on plantations that grew tobacco and pot lmao
