You didn't know this? Slaves have been a pretty staple thing throughout human history, only until very recently.

"Industrialized prison system" in no way similar to viking slaves at all, but you keep spouting ignorant stuff...

There are also way more people now than at any time in human history.

If this this accurate and it's 2000 years old, then the population of the earth at that time was around and 200m.

It's a very misleading statement, but obviously modern day slavery is horrific and should be condemned and annihilated.
