A guy standing around at a gas station counter isn't a slave, he gets paid to stand around and not have to think about anything.
I like to just imagine I have the craftsmen making my pyramid, I just get the slaves to make the bricks in the fashion of Dark Sun world. No water if you don't make my bricks
Pretty sure its well documented the pharoes used hebrew servants
when they couldn't use Hitites, at least

The pyramid slave thing is rejected by all main stream Egyptologist and Hebrews did not live in Egypt at the time that the pyramids were built.
ya
why did kyoani have to go, and not the studio that animates jojotrash
sad tbh
I just wanna imagine ancient earth as Dark Sun world okay. We all know how it really is, but lets just imagine its like dark sun world where everyone's evil lich psychics who built the pyramids and fought against bug men.
where midget cannibals roamed the desert sands
woooooow. Chistians and jews are more full of shit than even I thought
Weebs seem to be incapable of empathy
Curious
like for fucks sake, literally fabricating their own slave narrative
at least it actually happened to the blacks
Most serious Christian scholars don't believe that either.
I mean, romans kinda didn't care. They just enslaved anyone. You could even sell yourself into slavery
What really happened
mostly had to do with debt
no like it was real slavery
or honor system
no indentured shit
SPartans had legit slaves, tho
well yes rome had actual slavery, but they also had indenture
Like you could sell yourself into slavery as a means to prevent your whole family as a means of paying off entire debts owed. You could even trade your children.
Rome even allowed you as a family to have a vote and if it was unanimous you can legally kill X family member and decimate them from the history
whether one outweighed the other depends which era
were the ancient jewish kingdoms even real or was it all part of the story they told each other to reminisce as if they were descended from great kings?
legit question
I don't know, till I just looked it up now, prompted by ana, I thought it had merit
Ancient Israel did exist, but archeologists disagree on the details.
Indentured Servitude in Rome was more about swearing an oath to a patrician house for X seasons in exchange that they cover your debts, etc.
that would have been back when the republic was strong and democratic.
Israelite kings are attested in Assyrian and Moabite sources.
Its like telling the bank "I'll work for you, for like 7 summers. if you cover the debt. But I do my own thing outside of summer." and they shake
most my jewish history knowledge came from the bible stories in the old testament, and to me it all read like a bunch of tribes in small villages making up stories on how they used the be the biggest kingdom in all the land until they did an oopsie and angered their god
and the roman republic was not democratic
before caesar initiated perpetual dictatorship and colloseum games reigned
democratic-ish
