People had been enslaving eachother for hundreds of years before white men brought black ppl here. Africans had their own African slaves. Stop acting like slavery is only a white sin

Slavery existed before, sure. But white men turned it into a race-based system of superiority. That’s the difference. Do some critical thinking, you’re genuinely RIGHT there at the point.

Egyptians enslaving Jews is from religious texts and not backed by solid historical evidence. And even when slavery did exist back then, it wasn’t race-based. It was about war, debt, or class. The difference is Europeans built a system where skin color itself determined who was enslaved

Jews were the people of the nationality of Israel. It was very race based.

Ancient Jews weren’t seen as a different race, they were a cultural/religious group. Egyptians didn’t enslave them because of skin color or racial hierarchy. The modern idea of race was invented much later by Europeans (ahem, white men) to justify slavery based on skin color.

They literally were a different race of ppl. The Jewish ppl. Not just in religion but origin and race.
