Was slavery a way to deal with illegal immigration

[zygosmasher]

I haven’t researched the specifics but weren’t slaves just poor and illegal immigrants from Africa

I’m sure they wouldn’t be coming over to America and other places if it was so bad for them

No they were just sold to europeans bcuz other africans would sell of their prisoners of war in their tribal conflicts to europeans for trade goods, there was no migration of them idk where you are getting that from, blacks are just in the americas due to the slave trade

The colonies the US needed slaves for manual labor.

Illegal immigration I wouldn’t say was a big issue, the US wanted diversity or atleast some colonies did and wanted religious freedom.

It was all about trade and agriculture, etc. Immigration is what the US wanted, it was never how bad it was in modern day.

Correct me if I am wrong but I think thats right

So pretty much it was africas scum getting shipped off to another prison and made to work

How the fuck can they complain then about slavery as if it was innocent or meaningful people in society

slavery was how blacks immigrated to america. it's an unsolvable dilemma for whites because it's technically a self own, as you cannot tell someone who you forcefully brought over to now get out without sounding stupid. and since black slavery is seen as one of the biggest crimes of human history, african americans now have a loophole where they are constant victims while obviously benefiting enormously from living in a developed country at the same time.

Kinda correct but keep in mind immigration was heavily restricted to other white peoples but even then were debates and concerns over german immigration diluting the english identity of america, the mass migration of peoples on the modern scale is fairly recent imo

Nope if you paid attention in history you would know when Europeans where first colonizing the Americas they would need physical labor and they would search and come upon Africa where they would ravage and do lots of things to African men women and children then bring them to America to work on plantations and be apart of Americas growing cotton economy

Nigger the US did not want diversity, they wanted only white people from Europe to immigrate, they made immigration difficult for asians or latinos or even people from Eastern Europe, and they basically were right doing that. A country should not be diverse, that's the whole point of a country, otherwise the country will be divided.

Slavery was never some moral evil to begin with and not nearly as "evil' or bad as people make it out to be

the blacks definitely do and if you even try to speak up they gonna say some shit like “you don’t know what 200 years of oppression looks like!!!” As if the world hasn’t catered to them for decades

This is false, europeans rarely directly captured slaves, african tribes and kingdoms would sell their prisoners of wars to european traders on the coast, they never went inland as it was far too costly

Umm yes they did explain the triangle trade what was that

no, basically jewish and white elites went to eastern africa and bought slaves from the kings, who were then transported to the new world to do the same shit they were doing in africa

 

[IronMike]

Slaves were used as labor and sexual tools.

White men were too lazy to plant crops and have sex with their wives so they had africans do it

 

[trvegoy]

the triangle trade was how the slaves were transported, they were caught and collected by african elites and brought to the coasts to sell to the white and jewish elites

They were acquired because african tribes and kingdoms launched various conflicts and wars to aquire captives to sell off to european traders for guns, why would european traders directly capture slaves when traveling inland would of been far more costly than just trading with the african kingdoms for their captives
