    Strange, its almost like because slavery is still legal, companies are using it for profits in some kind of military industrial prison “complex”…

      The same way all the exploitation the west does in the countries that have been colonized is hidden. As long as people don’t have to look at the actual cost of producing their cheap shit, they don’t care.

      When was the last time you or anyone you know saw prison slave labor at work?

      Edit: For the life of me, I can’t figure out what’s controversial about saying it is hidden and you’ve probably never seen slave labor at work.

          As a Canadian, the fact that it took until the 90s to close the last residential school gives me little faith that the US will make tangible moves to end slavery in this century.
