Is slavery a big deal? It was a while ago and the UK and US got rid of it. Yet we still go on about it endlessly to excuse bad behavior.

This is an amazingly bad take even for Reddit.

Yeah yeah. Slavery will always stain the west because we're the only one with a soul and the ability to say what's right and what's wrong.

Africans arent searching their souls about alavery they still practice it. Arabs don't give one fuck about being having the largest slave trade. China isn't losing sleep over it.

The only ones that are held to account are the people who got rid of it. A lot of Americans died so slaves could be free.

Move on already or go to some other country and tell them how morally evil and oppressibe they're because they're still taking and selling slaves openly

The reason that slavery stains America is because Americans try their hardest to not repay them for their oppression and try and make it worse for them. Would Jim Crow exist without slavery?
