Oh, I meant that there's no country where legally owned people work in every layers of society. If it's underground slavery, I can't tell. Like if there are still societies sneakily using slaves, I dont think any of them have the balls to publicly recognize it.

Doesn't sound all that great but still better than US slaves I agree. 1. Freed high achievers slaves have discriminatory limits about the position they can hold. If too many freed slaves ended up at the top and pushed positive policies for slaves, it'd threaten the very fabric of the society...

Roman slave were also treated like object, mostly without any chance to free themselves, no payment system, not able to hold assets, and said slavery also automatically & legally extended to their offspring and grandchildren, just like animals. They even kept social stigma after freedom. I...

I'll provide some balance to this positive depiction: No matter how well they publicly treat their slaves, it doesn't erase all the untold misfortune. Besides, the records left in history aren't always completely neutral. (I don't think ancient era were a place of greatest peace and highest...

Sorry for misunderstanding your point. You're correct to provide nuances. I agree that there is subtleties in the way things can be implemented. I only wanted to explain a fraction of the original post (about the flaws of slavery and landlords) My point was that both slavery and landlord can...

Sorry I don't want to be gladiator, why are you forcing this on me. If someone wants to become a slave, good for them. If they change their mind, fuck them, they brought it upon themselves kek Slavery isn't depicted as a free choice in fiction. Be mad at the writers for not glorifying slavery...

Of course you are right, landlords aren't all good or bad. It can be observed that the concept of unfettered sucking profiting landlords and lobbying to ensure their advantage is evil. Not one specific individual or another is evil. (Like are you gonna make a scene at McDonald because you don't...

Trashy doesn't want to elaborate too much on his statement, but I can try to detail what he might have meant. His initial statement is the following. What constitutes as evil in his opinion is illustrated by "leeching of those who cannot afford their own housing". From that, the distilled...

Take the liver, dice it, wash it in brine and milk, slap it in searing buttered pan. It's still somewhat tasty

Apparently sailors used to be happy when their hardtack had worms. Free protein.

Nickname checks out. How is it that Randy Savage summoner makes you question your ideas but not USB stick isekai?? Are you like "Yup, I'm definitely onto something with that fish talking USB"

Weren't you the one who came up with the "reincarnated as a mongolian usb fish stick" or something?

Yeah maybe I suck at omniscient, my writing feels always dry with it. Coloring it with biased perception always make it funnier to me. Gaps between reality and perception is always fascinating and easy characterization since it indirectly hints underlying psyche like values, wishes, past...

What I meant by visual medium was more specifically manga panels where it's easy to slip bubble thought from any character and form a temporary biased narrator and visually zoom in on the character overthinking stuff, then switching to another character and do the same which expose...

What do you think about the subject of head hopping? Like using the shifts to be able to zoom into inside out level for two different character within a single chapter. I heard it's jarring and Sanderson recommends only one character pov per chapter, but visual mediums shift pov use it so easily...

There are people who would pay you to be allowed to harass the innocent lol

Is it the urban fantasy story where the MC patrols to stop creatures like werewolves, vampires, and sorcerers to ruin modern society? I loved it, I think I found some pdf for free but I stopped midway. The setting was awesome. It reminded me of the setting of the manga Arago.
