A man made this very argument regarding “the war of Northern Aggression.” He said to the black man in the crowd he was arguing with “my family was poor and had to work for everything they had. Do you know how much people cost back then?!”
Everyone was like :-0
Yep its ableist and privileged to argue against slavery when some people rely on their slaves to support their family. /s
If you want to abolish slavery you’re a liberal. Real leftists use their slaves to fight capitalism. /s
HOLY SHIT THIS ANALOGY IS PERFECT
