There's a difference between slavery being not only legal but a state institution, and slavery being propagated by criminals that the police have not yet caught.

Lol there is no slavery in the west. You hold slaves.

Our prison systems in many cases are in fact legalized slavery, otherwise I agree.

I'll cede that our prison system is trash but other than that all the above replies are silly. Human trafficking is not the same as legalized slavery.

By this point three people have told you that you are wrong and all you can say "that does not fit what I mean by slavery". Maybe explain your point better or accept that the word you are using has a wider meaning than you think.

Most likely you just wanted to have a cheap swipe at a group of people / culture you do not like. Maybe used your time better and read some of the links I posted.

Ok. I've replied to each person individually but ok. So you're wrong because an illegal trade in immigrants is not comparable to legalized official slavery😀.

That is an incredibly naive and ignorant take. Slavery is rampant in the west. It might not be as open and deliberate as in Qatar, but it is prevalent.
