The South Had Slavery, the North Had Sweatshops. The North Had No Moral Superiority.False premise. The Africans were not in worse conditions than slavery. Idiot.Slavery Saved Them From SavageryDid the slaves choose to work there? Dumb ass...Slaves didn't have a choice genius. College athletes have unlimited choices. First, they choose to play. Then they choose which school to attend. Then they choose to keep playing (they can quit any time they want).The SEC makes over $500 million dollars in revenue per year off the backs of students who aren't paid a dime and can lose their scholarships at the whim of the college they are attending. Oh, but they get "free room and board". Sounds an awful lot like some RWers defense of slavery. "The slaves were well cared for by their masters".
Yeah...sure sounds like "slavery". Funny how the party of slavery and racism is ok with the government putting a gun to our head and forcing us to do everything but an adult choosing to play college sports is "slavery" in their mind.
The $500 million per year is spent on the athletes my dear. Here are the "slave quarters". Oh the humanity. Looks really rough...

Yeah, the slaves sometimes had nice workplaces too...
Did the slaves prefer to be in far worse conditions back in the African jungle, where their usual fate was to become a lion's lunch.
And they were less likely to be eaten by a lion as an American was likely to be killed by malaria.
In America, Blacks have never been treated worse than they deserved. And they have always been better off than those left behind in Africa. Being against "racism" has snob value; that's the false premise that gives it ethical prestige.
