@smackertacker@yourlocaloaf@ClaireMax@jrc99us No, actually, I would ask: who decided it was socially accepted? The people it benefited to have slaves. Those people made it legal and socially “accepted”. Didn’t even have to be rich people. Sorry you’re trying so hard to fight and win against an argument I never made.
@smackertacker@yourlocaloaf@ClaireMax@jrc99us History has shown that just because something is legal doesn’t mean it has no social repercussions. Slavery was legal. It was illegal for a woman to have the same rights as men. Just because your hypothetical argument is rooted in a “norm” doesn’t excuse the actions as “just”.

"The kimono... we had to get it from Japan... there's this anime called Bleach. It's one of my favorites. I don't want to bore you, but anyway, I feel like I'm channeling a character from that whenever I wear the kimono in that way."

Rent is due, health insurance is tied to employment, groceries aren’t free. Yeah actually. Totally voluntary.
“This generation will not be defined by its great games or incredible tech, but rather by corporate greed, mismanagement, and anti-consumer practices.”
