Yes, slaves are super convenient. No one ever said that slaves aren't nice to have, dude. YOUR experience is not the fucking point.

There is no way to create a creature for the express purpose of exploitation that is okay. There is no way to create a creature with the intention of forcing it into a state of total dependence that is not actually evil.

comparing slaves to animals is what slavers do

[–] LinkeSocke@feddit.org 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (17 children)

Slavers do that because they think other Animals are worth nothing and want to say Human Slaves are also worth nothing.

Here quite the opposite is done. All Animals have a Worth. Every living being has the same worth. Modern Science says that Humans are also Animals.

If you still think its something only a Slaver would say then in your head other animals probably have no worth at all. So you think someone else wants to degrade humans with that comparison. Even tho its not degrading at all. You just think less of other animals, and you probably deny the science that Humans are Animals. Which is the reason why @Duke_Nukem_1990@feddit.org says you sound like a "human supremacist"

Every living being has the same worth.

if this were true then harvesting grain or chopping down a tree or using hand sanitizer would be murder.
