  I wonder how many slave owners were racist and how many just had them because they were slaves. Possibly varied

      Maybe it didn’t make sense, to rephrase better, I wonder how many slave owners who bought black slaves would have also bought white slaves had they been sold

  Syke! Racists care about (already born) children just as much they care about people of color

  I think conflating racists and slave owners is a bit disingenuous. The slave owners would have done the same thing to white people if there weren’t any convenient Africans to exploit.

  They weren’t racist, they’re were just incredibly lazy and selfish, and also possibly racist but in a disconnected way.

    I think you don’t know how slavery was justified.

  Rich people knew what they were doing, they just enjoyed the luxury too much to care.
