I hope IWOC-IWW can help organize around this bs. My first thought is sit down strikes. I feel like slave labor is particularly weak to that kind of action.
Counterpoint: solitary confinement sucks
they can’t isolate every prisoner at the same time, and by engaging in a sit down strike, they can’t fill those spots with people afraid to fight back.
That reminds me of the words of Jews during the lead up to WWII. No one wanted to be the first to die, so they all died. It’s easy to say to sit down and protest when you’re free.
Counter counter point. I love being alone.
I’m not trying to cover the point you’re actually making though.
You won’t after 48 hours with nothing to do and no one to talk to for 48 hours.
Try me.
Ok, go lock yourself in an empty closet for 48 hours with a bright light on the entire time and report back to us on how it goes!

Hopefully America can figure out how to end slavery for good soon.
You are assuming that the US political establishment has ever really wanted to end slavery. It’s a very shaky assumption.
Right, history is arguably various groups of entitled people trying to enslave others under various names and methodologies.
Sorry, best we can do is slavery with extra steps.
What would they do to you if you refuse to work for free?

Hello… it’s a prison?
Can you elaborate a little more?
It’s a prison… they can make you do whatever the hell they want.
No, they really can’t.
They shouldn’t but they can.
Not literally, no.
At least not without repercussion.
Shit, AITA that thinks inmates should be cleaning up trash on the side of roads?
Inmates actively DREAM of those jobs lol
Only people who have never had even a time out think work sucks when you are locked up
