#but anyways predictably people have latched on to the household slavery thing & are exclusively talking about how that was bad

I need to do a rb/addition to that roman slavery post I made bc the notes keep missing the point I was trying to make & it's really annoying me but also I'm to tired to phrase it well
#i very much agree that household slavery was bad & that people diminish how appalling it was but what i was trying to say w that post is#that people tend to be aware of the household slavery but then will turn around & tell you it can't be compared to later e.g. american#slavery bc it isn't large scale plantation type slavery when like it was!!!!! they Did have these vast scale agricultural opperations worked#entirely by slaves!!!!! this was a major issue in the roman republic in fact !!#please please please read about the conditions & situation in sicily leading to the first & second servile wars#and this is not to mention the absolute horror that were the mines#but anyways predictably people have latched on to the household slavery thing & are exclusively talking about how that was bad#which is very very true but please can we also address the main point of my post#whatever. I'll articulate at good reblog/addition at some point#it's my fault for phrasing it badly tbf#thoughts
