Nah, there's better sources of slave labor out there

why? is your seed weak and lazy?

No, they'll just be more suited to skilled labor

sewing shoes aint easy

And slave labor can't make a quality product that way <:makes_you_think:382980749780844554>

youre right. i want to make quality products

WORK WILL SET YOU FREE

i mostly agree. too much work can mess you up

TFW you realize we abolished slavery out of concerns for product quality

youre gonna have to make a solid argument for that

Rise of industrialization.

I'm to infer the rest? Connect the dots? Yes, machines.

And then within two decades we're having wars over banning slavery? Yeah, not a coincidence

Hey! I leveled up!

since consumers and producers alike are no longer very worried about quality control, do you think we'll have some more slavery?

No need to, now that we've learned about the positives of innovation

Unless the grid goes down

O_O

Youre not leveling up if you only convinced yourself, lol

>Implying Chinese factory workers aren't slaves already.

more a slave than i?

Define 'slave'

Were they worse off prior to modernization?

most people are in terms of life expectancy id imagine

Well, China was in a horrible communist regime, so yeah, they were far worse off.

DKO thanks for your coding tips recently

?

in <#423219052849397773> this week you said some things about coding. it was advice. thx

I think you'd be hard-pressed to find a generation of humans who didn't wonder if they were about to wind up living in the endtimes, @Fitzydog

So don't let that feeling kill your motivation to do the right thing

yeah the endtimes are like the worst time to do the wrong thing

Otherwise you'll wind up as a bitter 40 year old single man who wished he'd actually gone ahead and done those things instead of putting them off because he was too worried about 'the future'

Go watch some cat videos if you're feeling down.

^lol wtf

@Reaps Well, considering my uncle just terminated his music teacher career over the fact that he's receiving death threats from students and parents alike on a monthly basis, that's kind of a new thing.

a cat will walk on anything if im trying to focus on it

Your grandparents had to deal with pretty much the entire world being set on fire, your parents probably had to deal with the spectre of nuclear war, and so on

But they were winning lol

It's hard to tell who is winning when you're in the thick of it

What did your uncle recieve threats over and why did that lead him to give up his career?
