Right-Wing Discussion Thread VIII: McCarthy Was Right

[Salus Maior]

Is it really unethical? The Romans did it just fine.

You realize it was acceptable to torture one's slaves in Rome, right?

Not to mention, Roman slavery was entirely different from slavery in the colonial era. For one, it wasn't based on race.

That's what Confederate sympathizers tend to say.

Yet without slavery the Industrialized North wrecked the South.

They just put the bonds of Uncle Sam and military law on some poor bastard fresh off the boat from the emerald isle.

Worse like North Korea.

Yes and so what?

Also Ottomeme slavery was based on race too. What difference does it make in the grand scheme of things if it was raced based or just those of a conquered people?

Not really, considering you just said it was acceptable to torture slaves in Rome.

For one, it wasn't based on race.

Race is a very nebulous concept, and slavery is slavery.

Ottomans also castrated their slaves. South couldn't do that though, what with the Brits trying to destroy the Atlantic slave trade.

Then obviously it isn't ethical.

The difference is that in the Colonial context race-based slavery was based on the idea that certain races were inferior. Unlike Rome which even had Romans as slaves, as it was often a criminal punishment to be put in slavery. In Rome, it also was possible for slaves to earn money outside of their slaving work.

Torture is unethical? That's a very modern opinion friendo.

So what? Romans thought conquered people were inferior too. Perhaps those inferior should have fought harder :^)

Sadly, much of it is TEM engaging in massive slavery apologia.

Well, pardon me for not being entirely out-of-date :^)

They didn't think they were inferior in and of themselves. If they assimilated into Roman culture their status improved.

This may come as a surprise to you but sometimes it is interesting to argue from the other perspective. Sadly, you aren't up to the challenge of proving me wrong.

I do enjoy hearing about Sweden's "Feminist" foreign policy to counter Russia.

To be fair, 5th century Roma was but the last twitching of the once mighty Empire.

The Empire died when Memechranity was introduced as state religion

Reinstall Imperial Cult Bacchian Orgies now.

To be honest, I can't really disagree.

I'm largely supportive of Roman civilization.
