Know what else is barbaric and horrible? The crimes some of the "slaves" commit



Any child abusers or rapists arguably deserve it, but not to the benefit of a private company. And they shouldn't be required to work imo.


Even those classes of people include people who don't deserve it, given the extent of crimes that fall under those labels. Consider a parent being charged with child abuse for letting their child play alone outside, much like parents of old. Or consider cases that fall right outside the limits of Romeo and Juliet clauses.


Adult abusers or rapists deserve better though.


I don't think the comment meant "child [abusers or rapists]" but rather "[child abusers] or rapists". i.e. those who either are [abusers of children], or are [any kind of rapist].


yes, I meant the latter.
