Not all of them. They used the women as sex slaves. They ate all the men.
We should have helped the French wipe them out.
Here I am actually accounting for the crimes against humanity, and you completely shit the bed with this hyperbole.
They didn't "eat all the men". They were typically decapitated, lacerated, or dismembered. Then buried. Not eaten. This is the very beginning of post-colonial Haiti, so famines aren't the norm yet.
And no, the women were not sex slaves, they were forcibly married. A slave is property you can transfer. You weren't allowed to transfer wives, and so long as the women explicitly volunteered to marry a black man, they'd be spared. Slaves don't chose their masters.
People need to know about the genocide in the Haitian revolution, and you're not helping if you make up bullshit.
Sounds like islamic state sex slavery to me.
Nah, these were voodoo demon worshipers.
It's the same picture. XDDD
Exactly 0 of them were muslims.
Doesn't excuse'em.
“They weren’t slaves; they were given the choice between sexually pleasing the men or death” is just arguing semantics.
I don't think so. They didn't even have to cite which man. It's a pretty easy call. It's still forced marriage, but it's not sex slavery. It's a better deal than even the Uighurs are getting.
There were some people happy to see France take an L. it also happened at a weird time re the the French Revolution. A lot of people were afraid of both the French monarchy and the New French.
Looks like they were wrong then.
