Not slavery? Don’t be obtuse. That same commodification via containment is only a part of the greater system of human labor as livestock — which also includes slavery, TBF. Splitting those hairs is either naive or apologetic, and the stark reality of it all DGAF if you understand that. Hell, they’re counting on it.
First off, I apologize for my brusk tone. I’m sorry you had to experience that first-hand, and we have that in common. It’s not something I often talk about (I can count on one hand, in the last 20+ years since), but I want you to know that I hear you.
If anyone was obtuse, it was me for failing to clarify that the prison system==slavery I was referring to is the forced labor of our incarcerated that was literally written into the 13th Amendment and infallible proof that slavery as we’re taught never ended.

You are not alone, and I mean that genuinely. (vs. a tropey excuse for compassion) ✊🏽
