  1. 你能说出一本像基督山伯爵这样的书吗?我喜欢这种类型的复仇类书籍 - reddit 给我建议一本书小组

  2. 为什么 19 世纪的人没有想到奴隶制是错误的?- 没有愚蠢的问题

其中一个回答:

A better analogy is:  一个更好的类比是:

Why don’t people in 1st-world-countries feel like their inexpensive clothing made in near-slavery-conditions is exploitative?

为什么第一世界国家的人们不觉得他们在近乎奴隶制的条件下制作的廉价服装是剥削?

Why don’t people think their food farmed by marginalized migrant farm workers under near-slavery conditions is exploitative?

为什么人们不认为他们在近乎奴役的条件下被边缘化的移民农场工人养殖的食物是剥削性的? Why do people drive electric cars and carry cell phones who’s batteries’ minerals were literally mined by slave laborers?

为什么人们开电动车,带手机,电池里的矿物质实际上是由奴隶劳工开采的? Why do people still buy chocolate, and why do rich people waste it in sculptures, despite it being notorious for child slavery.

为什么人们仍然购买巧克力,为什么富人把它浪费在雕塑上,尽管它因奴役儿童而臭名昭著。

Much of the first-world economy is based on exploiting abusive labor practices inflicted upon less fortunate people.

第一世界经济的很大一部分是建立在剥削不太幸运的人的虐待劳工行为的基础上的。

TL/DR: We’ve just outsourced slavery to not-quite-slavery euphemisms that are mostly just beyond most people’s sight.

TL/DR:我们刚刚将奴隶制外包给大多数人看不到的不完全奴隶制委婉语。

有用户回复:

You absolutely have a point, and I’m not trying to argue with you at all, but i guess it’s a little easier to “ignore” where the clothes that show up in your mailbox come from than the folks getting whipped while picking cotton in your front yard.

你绝对有道理,我一点也不想和你争论,但我想“忽略“你邮箱里出现的衣服来自哪里比在你前院摘棉花时被鞭打的人更容易。

层主回复:

A vast majority of whites (in america) during the slavery era didn’t own slaves. They ignored slavery in the exact same way we ignore it today. It’s very easy to turn a blind eye when you benefit from it.

奴隶制时代的绝大多数白人(在美国)没有奴隶,他们无视奴隶制的方式和我们今天无视奴隶制的方式一模一样,当你从中受益时,很容易视而不见。

另一位用户回楼上:

30.8 percent of the free families in the confederacy owned slaves. source 邦联中 30.8%的自由家庭拥有奴隶

然后我成功的困惑了。
