I’m…not sure that counts.
Jews were forced to labor for the Nazis. How was that not slavery?
It wasn’t a “book”. It may have had many books written on it but that wasn’t the original statement.
Does the Holocaust count as slavery or not?
That was not the point I was making so it doesn’t matter.
That’s quite the evasion of a yes or no question.
Usually you think of the extermination aspect, but yes there was some. But my point was that responding to me saying another book containing slavery with a historical event was kind of unusual. There’s been books written on it for sure by it’s mostly unrelated.
