It’s funny because imperialism, which is slavery with a different name, still exists in the world today.

Also, American capitalism could be viewed as slavery for the poor, although indentured servitude to debt holders would likely be a better comparison.

You can’t really have American capitalism without slavery. That’s where it started, and it’s been pried from the grip of capitalists over time. If they can’t enslave, they have child labor. When that’s banned, just pay everyone as little as possible. When minimum wage laws are passed, they lobby against them forever. Those who want slavery settled for scuttling labor progress at every opportunity.
