do these idiots think slavery came into being in the 1500s?!

are you kidding?

have they forgotten who Moses was or his stroll out of Egypt?

even that wasn’t the start of slavery...

Agreed. Slavery was mentioned in Genesis in the Noah story (Genesis 9).

Slavery is a wrong headed economic system that denies labor a proper cut of profit & productivity.

It has been around since the stone age and isn’t going anywhere......the global elitist like it, fund it, and make sure it’s a profitability financial venture moving forward.

I think they are referring to a very specific type of slavery, i.e. “plantation slavery”, built around sugar plantations. That is very much a 15th-16th century phenomenon. The ancient world had slavery of different kinds, debtors slavery or spoils of war slavery.
