Could slavery ever potentially make a come back? Like governments

only if they enslave white people :^)

It depends. If we have an "asteroid strikes earth scenario" than yes. Also in areas controlled by ISIS they have legalized sex slavery so there's that.

In the West only if our civilization falls like that of ancient Rome.
In most other parts of the world it still exists in all but name.

They won't call it slavery, probably calling it something similar to assisted living instead

why does societal / economic collapse imply a return to slavery? Where did this meme come from?

>>2526051
General the collapse of social order and the law leads to eventual, if not immediate, lawlessness

>>2526051
Our current society sees slavery as something immoral and wouldn't allow it. So that society would have to be destroyed for a comeback of slavery to be possible.

When stronger sex finally overthrow the shackles of patriarchy men slave be enslaved, forced into an underground facility and milked for their seed.

>why does societal / economic collapse imply a return to slavery?

Because the rule of law prevents it and a global, technologically advanced economy makes it pointless. There's a reason human trafficking in developed nations is all about sex now - it's the one thing left a human can do against their will that can't be done better than machines.

>>2526051
Because only the powers that be prevent slavery. They do this for their own gain. Nothing inherent in any society is anti-slavery.

The rise of Islamic, Christian and Jewish fundamentalisms could lead (and in some areas, has already led) to a revival of slavery since all Abrahamic religions allow it. Some Islamic (ISIS) and Christian (LRA) terrorist organizations have already brought it back, and some influential rabbis in Israel have called for legalization of slavery.

/d/ pls

>>2526088
All religions allow it unless it's some less known sect or new age shit.

>>2525982
What slavery?

We are advancing to the point where humans won't be needed due to extreme technological advancement.


Unless Islam wins.
In that case, slavery will make a comeback.

>>2526112
>Unless Islam wins

Name one Muslim-majority country in which slavery is legal.

>>2526117
Practically everyone? They're basically indentured house servants. Still slaves though.

Somalia
The Islamic State
Pakistan

Shit argument. Heroin isn't legal in the united States but it's super common.

Islamic gulf states abuse their laborers from India and Bangladesh to basically slave levels. Slavery is alive and well in Niger. Etc. Etc.

>>2526122
A couple of Gulf states is not "practically everyone", and no, having a sponsor that is responsible for your visa is not the same thing as being literally enslaved.

There's your problem. It doesn't have to bo codified in law for for it to be a common practice.

>>2526144
Yes, it's not slavery. I don't think that you know what the legal definition of this word is.

When everything but creative work and government has been automatized there is no longer any reason for 99% of humanity to exist in the eyes of people with power other than to be people to rule over, but these people still need to eat and starving them all to death might be dangerous to the social order, so they offer to feed and house them in exchange for their loyalty to the person who owns the resources.

As the population grows the economic value of each individual human life decreases, combine this with our economy worshiping modern world and we get a society on the brink of rendering everybody morally and physically obsolete. Unable to work because there is no work to be done, and unable to justify their existence because they are unable to become useful to the economy. Some are inclined to think that once this happens we will have some kind of communal arcadia where people just lay around and have no obligations to do anything but what they want, as their life is fully subsidized and all work is taken care of automatically. But what is far more likely is that people who can will take what is theirs and become Pharaoh over teeming hordes of economically superfluous dependents who only live and eat at the pleasure of their master. These people will likely be brow beaten into the dust with the shame of their dependence.

That happens in the Us with migrant labour.

*See "Taxation"

Okay, can someone explain to me how slavery doesn't currently exist? If all of the worker's collective productive energy gets absorbed into the pockets of a few capitalists as the return over interest on capital or landlords as rent, how does slavery not exist for the countries or groups of people we force to do agricultural/manufacturing labor for us?!?!

>>2526001
Why would we go back to the bronze age without oil? Wouldn't we go back to just before the Industrial revolution?

>>2525982
Probably not outright chattel slavery, no. They could make debtors into slaves though.
