Do you also find it strange that when it comes to the topic of slavery, whether in the media or at school, it is always presented as if it had…

Did white Europeans always enslave other peoples and never the other way around? For example, there were the Barbary states, whose main source of income was the slave trade with Europeans (Christians). They transported Europeans to North Africa and enslaved them in the Mediterranean and as far away as Ireland and Iceland. Or in the Middle Ages, the Slavs (Saqāliba) were sold to Arabs.

Natürlich hat es Sklaverei schon lange gegeben und tauchte in den verschiedensten Ländern und Kulturkreisen auf. Nur hatte sie im Westen, v.a. den USA, vergleichsweise lange Relevanz und es wurde und wird versucht, das damals begangene Unrecht anzuerkennen, soweit möglich wieder gutzumachen und ähnliches in Zukunft zu vermeiden. Andere Länder haben dies weniger getan oder versuchen diesen Aspekt ihrer Geschichte zu verschweigen. Mit dem Zeigefinger auf andere zu zeigen, nur weil diese Ähnliches getan haben, macht die eigenen Aktionen allerdings nicht besser.

History is written by the victors.

Religious wars and slavery have nothing to do with skin color or religion.

They are simply people who unfortunately have gone astray or have gone astray in history.

All people can be good or evil. Humanity hasn't learned anything from all of this to this day.

My dream would be a peaceful humanity of all nations, skin colors, genders, sexual orientations, …

This is and will probably remain a dream, even though humanity is supposedly so intelligent.

Die Anhänger Mohammeds haben in Afrika genauso brutal und erfolgreich Sklaven gejagt, gefangen, verkauft und gequält.

Es gibt da keinen Unterschied.

Der einzige Unterschied ist der, dass der Westen das Unrecht eingesehen hat und aufarbeitet.

Der Islam dagegen leugnet und betreibt Geschichtsklitterung, wie gehabt.

Also ich würde mal sagen, das sind keine Anhänger, sondern sie benutzen ihre Religion als Ausrede für ihre Verbrechen, Unterdrückung, …

Wer wirklich an eine Religion glaubt, der glaubt an Liebe und Frieden, Empathie und Menschlichkeit. Alle anderen sind keine Gläubigen, egal welcher Religion.

Leider wird und wurden Religionen sehr oft und immer noch als Ausrede bzw. Zweck für Verbrechen, Kriege, Morde, Leid, … in der ganzen Welt benutzt. Das hat nichts mit Religionen zu tun.

Good morning,

(Read the Wikipedia article!)

uh, … First of all: Slaves still exist today. Both according to the classic definition and according to more recent definitions. For example, forced prostitution can also be considered a form of slavery.

However, slavery today is largely carried out in secret. If it becomes public, 1 billion people immediately demand that their governments stop it. [Satire] Starvation is everyone's business, but slavery is completely unacceptable. [/]

In medieval times, people were probably enslaved in all parts of the world.

  • Wise men have enslaved wise men
  • Blacks enslaved Blacks
  • Asians enslaved Asians
  • etc

In addition, they enslaved each other wherever they encountered one another… In Europe, this only stopped when a pope decreed that Christians were no longer allowed to enslave Christians, and thus many non-Christian peoples converted to Christianity…

Then the wise Europeans and those of European descent (I mean the Americans and the Austrians) could still enslave the dark-skinned people from Africa. (Surely a few Asians too…) This continued in America until the 19th century. [Satire] Don't worry, the Europeans weren't any less cruel [/] , but rather cruel in a different way. Hust Manchester Capitalism Hust

Topic of slavery, … white Europeans always enslaved other peoples

Yes, yes. There are many examples of "where man has forgotten his humanity!" … One is also being discussed particularly strongly here in Germany: the Holocaust. It wasn't just mass murder. It also involved forced labor on a significant scale. Forced labor is another, "nicer" word for slavery!
