The richer they are, the lazier and more indolent they are. It's gone to the point that we have PSAs warning people about 'agents' offering jobs too good to be true in those 'rich' muslim countries, because it can lead to having ones' passport seized and made to work for a pittance and debt slavery, and made to live in squalid conditions unfit for human habitation.
It's a pajeet YouTube channel with an enormous following, known for brigading, doxxing, and apologetics for pedophilia(and incredibly shitty music). They were for a while the only channel to come close to Pew's numbers.
Essentially it's a slur against pajeets, about the nastiest thing I can call them.
If we were to compare apples to apples, the growth of the former slave population in America and European colonies indicates that western slavery was the least harsh. If we put that model to North Africa and the European slaves taken just during The Atlantic slave trade, there would be over 120 million white European slave descendants in North Africa from that time period alone. Considering the mass enslavement of Slavs by Muslims flourished around ~900 AD and continued for a millennia, the white global population would be astronomically higher today.
And I’m sure the American slave owners ran the spectrum from very cruel to very kind. The powers that be have done an amazing job of making ppl think that slavery was a purely British/American invention. Heck, I even believed the “kidnapped from Africa” narrative until my teens and then started reading up on the topic
Yeah - one of my eye openers to history was reading Winston Churchill’s “A History of English Speaking Peoples” - lots of stuff there that gets buried in modern narrative world.
Slavery in the Ottoman Empire lasted until roughly 1910s and 1920s (it had been on the decline for many years, but was not totally eliminated until 1930).
Slavery basically existed in every single human culture around the world and throughout human history. It took modern European and Christian morality to eliminate slavery and eliminate it throughout the entire world.
I would love a mini series that would explore non western slavery but it would never happen. So many in the west think America and England invented slavery. You also have recorded interviews from the early 1900s with former slaves but I don’t think anything like that exists for slaves in Africa or any other part of the world
That's a really fascinating idea! Too bad it's probably too late to reach most of those people.
I knew a girl who was Turkish who studying in the US in college. She was PROUD of the fact that her grandfather had been a slave, because in Ottoman Turkey, many of the government officials were slaves. That's one way to keep the bureaucracy working efficiently--make them all the personal property of the Sultan!
An assassin's creed game set in that era, with a lone african MC cutting a path of devastation through those leaders would have been awesome. Sadly, ubishit wouldn't dare break their own narrative.
Because slavery is part and parcel of their vile religion, would be my guess.

Comment Approved: Not quite! This is specifically criticism of the religion itself.
I see Antonio kicked you out of bed. Do deal with the t series freaks if you can find the time?
T series?

So we're dealing with Hindi Nationalist Pedo Apologetics Hasan Piker?
oof
Unironically yes, more or less. I've been there, once. Never again.
I first learned about the Arabic slave trade from his books

Great point
Or a miniseries about the heroic British navy smashing the slave trade.
Amistead has a bit of that.
That would be great and it should also include the British trying to end slavery in Africa only to have the African leaders putting up resistance

Of course not
