<a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery_in_Libya" rel="nofollow">https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery_in_Libya</a><p>Here, all the slavery one can defeat. Tolerated by a culture with 2 billion heads. And it is utterly ignored for whatever hipocritical reasons. Same in China, were the lower classes from the village will be treated like owned air by the rich cityzens. All beneath a thin layer of western mimicry.Yet, im supposed to ignore the living, for what was back then a battle for the living and is today a civil war flag, for the western cultural block, the only block that marched with sic sempre tyrannis on the barbary cost and fought to better itself. The wingnuttery has to end, reality has to be embraced and the atrocities in it fought. Wherever they are.
There are more slaves today than any point in history. Sad but true fact we don’t think of in modern times.<p>I recommend donating to the ImJ who help find and free slaves, prosecute abusers, and educate and help the victims thrive in their freedom<p><a href="https://www.ijm.org/" rel="nofollow">https://www.ijm.org/</a>
>In what manner are they procured?<p>This really is the key: the manner reveals the motivation and morality is about motivations, which makes it understandable why slavery <i>existed</i> in the ancient world.<p>Suppose your country is invaded by a belligerent neighbour one summer and you manage to fend off the attack and capture most of the enemy soldiers.<p>What do you do with them afterwards:<p>(1) let them go,
(2) kill them,
(3) cut off their right thumbs and release them,
(4) make them your slaves?<p>The obvious problem with (1) is that if you let them go they may return next year and succeed in the job of murdering you and destroying your nation or tribe. (2) and (3) are fairly cruel and barbaric.<p>Which leaves (4).
