And oh yeah, let’s talk about SLAVERY IN THE 21st CENTURY shall we?

In China’s system of labor prisons (formerly called laogai), millions of prisoners have been subject to forced, unpaid labor. The laogai system is estimated to currently house between 500,000 and 2 million prisoners,[21] And to have caused tens of millions of deaths.

In parallel with laogai, China operated the smaller Re-education through labor system of prisons up until 2013.

In addition to both of these, It has been alleged that China is also operating forced labor camps in Xinjiang, imprisoning hundreds of thousands (possibly as many as a million) of Muslims, Uyghurs and other ethnic minorities and political dissidents.

But yes, we trade with them for cheap goods.

In North Korea, tens of thousands of prisoners may be held in forced labor camps. Prisoners suffer harsh conditions and have been forced to dig their own graves[39] and to throw rocks at the dead body of another prisoner.

At Yodok Concentration Camp, children and political prisoners were subject to forced labor.

Yodok closed in 2014 and its prisoners were transferred to other prisons.

WHAT ABOUT BLACK SLAVES TODAY?

Well, have a look at this site to see a list of African Countries where slavery still exists today:

I can’t even get feminists to honestly discuss ISIS sex slaves and Muslim theocracies aping fictional Gilead in a book group discussion of “The Handmaid’s Tale”.
That’s despite Atwood admitting she was equally inspired by Iran’s theocratic revolution with the Shah as she was by Jerry Falwell, per vicious liberal stereotyping of conservative Christians as wannabee Taliban.
