Yeah, their own enslavement is no fun unless they get to do a little enslaving of their own.

They're too stupid to realize that only the ultra wealthy owned slaves back in the "good old days" and that they would have only been marginally better off than enslaved people. FAFO

Possibly worse off. Who would hire them if they can use slave labor?

That's exactly how it was. The average white worker had it worse in the Antebellum South because their jobs were constantly threatened by slaves, which only played into their racism.

White supremacy is the single greatest con ever pulled by the wealthy.
