            I think prison reform is a seperate topic from slavery, but you do give up your rights in prison, which would include the 13th amendment. Many countries have much more terrible prison conditions.

            Either way in the 1800s slaves didn’t have as much of a choice to be a slave, today prisoners mostly had a choice before committing a crime (though I acknowledge not every person in jail deserves or should be there). I just think that should be awknowledge before saying America still has “slaves”. At the end of the day the law is what allows us to have the society we have today (for better or worse).

              Lmfao. You’re disgusting. No, not very many countries have worse prisons than America, At least not other comparable western nations.

                How is that disgusting? Admitting that you lose rights in prison? You’re literally just trolling for a reaction. I can think of a handful of EU countries with much smaller populations that have it better. Comparing black slaves from the 1800s to modern day prisoners is what’s disgusting

                  It’s disgusting because you’re defending slavery. Not surprised you need insults explained to you, lol.

                  Admitting that you lose rights in prison? You’re literally just trolling for a reaction.

                  In most countries on the planet, you don’t lose the right not to be used for slave labor if you get convicted for a crime, that would be cruel and unusual punishment. Do you think that opinion, held by the majority of the world, is a troll? Do you have a brain injury or something?

                  Comparing black slaves from the 1800s to modern day prisoners is what’s disgusting

                  Who in the fuck did this? You know chattel slavery in the US is a special kind of evil that pretty much only you guys ever did in the history of slavery? The Nazis took fucking lessons, you moron.

                  That doesn’t change the fact that slavery is part of your countries founding document, and provides exception for people who’ve been convicted of a crime. No its not chattel slavery, yes it is slavery. IT EVEN USES THE FUCKING WORD SLAVERY.

                  I can’t believe we’re having this conversation, to be honest with you, lmao.

                  Edit: You know most Western countries won’t extradite prisoners to the US because your prison system is so fucking cruel and backwards?

                  Of course you don’t, you’re 12.
