Why Do We Think Slavery is Evil?

[Rhondazvous]

I wasn't trying to answer your question. I addressed the part of your post that was relevant to the present discussion. If you want to start a thread about what constitutes slavery, you are welcome to do so.

Except, how is anyone to have a conversation with you about slavery if you don't tell them what constitutes it in your eyes?

That's a fair enough question

I can define two forms of slavery. And by the way, this isn't about what white people did to black people since there is no group of people on Earth that has not at some time in history been enslaved by some other group in one of these two ways. eg. North Africans enslaved European sailors who got lost in the Mediterranean sea, though I'm not sure if that slavery took the form of chattel slavery or mere peonage (the US Constitution makes a difference between slavery and involuntary servitude) .

1. Chattel slavery. When a human is reduced to property that can be bought, sold, inherited, used to pay debts

2. Wage slavery: When one class of people (capitalists) benefit from the labor of a larger group of people (laborers) and the group that does the work has no power to affect its working conditions or chance at a better life. This could be seen as a form of feudalism and probably doesn't fall under the Constitution without proactive advocacy.
