History will view us right up there with the slave owners. Some will view us as worse due to the sheer volume of animals we enslave and murder.
White people enslaved white people, I mean indentured servants.

Just because they sold off slaves for goods, does that mean it was right to subject them to one of the most brutal slavery trades ever documented?

I mean hey my friend sold me her dog, let me beat it up and kill it. its her fault for selling it to me

That would be slavery during the Roman Empire. Also lasted far far longer than slavery in North America.

not only that, but

Well over 90 percent of enslaved Africans were imported into the Caribbean and South America. Only about 6 percent of African captives were sent directly to British North America.

but the bozos only single out america.

Now if you want to see triggered, raise a Confederate battle flag. lol
Wow i didnt know white people were the only ones who voted. Could it have also been the large percentage of black and latino voters as well?

I didnt say all white people are racist, i am just simply bringing up history. For some reason, triggered to talk about the past when this post was about the past.

Yeah, I'm sure the blacks enslaving other blacks did so gently and only with their full cooperation. Probably on a voluntary basis! Hey guys, who wants to be a slave, sold at auction? Yes, you there sir and what about your wife and daughter?

All you want to do is vilify the white man, but ignore the facts and context.

BTW, you're so lost if you don't know the difference between a pet and a slave.
