The question that makes fundies hostile

[Drich]

Wow -- I present a choice of same-sex marriage or slavery and I get a response of "please define slavery."

Some of you fundies make Joseph McCarthy look like Jimi Hendrix.

And this, folks, is what they call "family values." Seriously -- they really do use that term.

I think I will present another one just for Drich.

OK, Drich, given the choice between a society in which slavey is an established institution, and a society in which slavery is illegal, which would you prefer?

Define slavery.


Because truthfully, all societies depends on one form of slavery or another. It's just been relabeled/redefined so that the self righteous will not feel guilty buying slave made products in/on Black Friday. Since I likes my $200.00 55" 3-d smart tv, my tablet, and other cheap mod cons. I will pick the society that pretends it does not tolerate slavery, but really supports it. How can my self deluded society do this?because the slaves in Question are not black, bare foot and picking cotton tobacco or some other 'cash crop' on Georgia plantation.

I like this idea of a society Because defines slaves very narrowly, and allows self righteous douche bags like myself to ignore the fact that my country, or rather the whole of western society still benefits from slavery, but because again these slaves do not fit a very specific stereotype, they are over looked or all together reclassified.

So again, if your confused. I want to live in a society that only pretends to be intolerant of slavery, but have it's very existence completely depends on it, so I can be a self righteous douche bag and pretend that my life would not completely stop if not for the slave laborers I need to survive. Then what's more if I am feeling extra douchie I will want to also retain the right criticize someone who wants to challenge this practice of burying our collective heads in the sand about modern day slavery, when he says he wants to take the blinders off and call a spade/slave a slave.
Meaning If this guy wants to say hey, what are we doing? How can we say we hate slavery, and Dedicate a whole day of the year to buying insanely cheap slave made products? That these actions not only facilitate slavery they force the consumer goods industry to close up shops in fair trade countries and to open up shops in slave trade countries.. That if this society took the responsibility, of identifying and accepting the slave trade for what it truly is, that those forced into working a slave wage factories, would receive better treatment. I want to reserve the right to call such a person who points to my own hypocrisy a bigot, so I can dismiss what this guys says without having to actually address any of his content.

Oh, wait a tick! I have some how reversed the roles. I'm the guy who want to embrace the term and relable slavery where ever it is in the world and in what ever form it takes so that it can be regulated. So that slave owners be made to care for and take responsibility for the human lives entrusted to him, and your the douche who wants to pretend slavery does not exist so that modern day slavers get to do what they do outside the scrutiny of the world's view so you can have your door buster deals.
