Slavery was bad. Society as a whole evolved past that.
But on an species individual level, no such evolution has taken place. The type of person/mentality it takes to be a slave driver, still exists. Those types of human beings are still being born.
Over time they have, as a group, collectively trickled their way up into the highest positions of capitalism and government.
Pause and take a moment.. imagine how much you think a slave driver cared about one of their slaves, because that's how much a billionaire cares about you.
This is not a wait it out, things will get better situation. Things will continue to worsen, despite any amount of protest or rhetoric.
Revolution is the only answer.
If you have a better answer please let us all know.
