      I deleted a tweet about slavery not because I don't stand by it, but because I phrased it in an unclear way and people were interpreting it in a way I did not mean. To clarify:

      Slavery, historically, has often not been among racial lines. It has been historically against the 'outgroup'. In the US, black skin was a very easy indicator of this outgroup. Slavery was done because it was profitable, and permissable because it was the outgroup.

      My recent tweets have been in the context of people trying to redefine the word 'racism' to mean 'systemic racism', which as far as I'm aware is largely a US discussion and is in the context of race-based slavery and heavily influenced by skin tone.

          I don't believe it is largely a US discussion - it has been ongoing here in Canada for decades with the Indigenous population at the forefront along with Black and POC. We are going through our own proposals of defunding/abolishing the police at the municipal levels as we speak.

          Outside the US the issues as I understand them are being an Anglophone and colorism. Anglophone as in only speaks english, which means you will miss out on vital information/cultural norms. And Colorism which is like racism -> IE lightskins being soft or darker being strong.

          Systemic racism is like group selection in evolution: the idea seems plausible until you drill down and try to explain how it actually works at the level of the constituent elements.

          The trouble with systemic racism is the concept is so vague and means different to different people. I think it can even said to be unfalsifiable.

          Interested in brutality of American slavery vs, say, ancient Roman slavery. There were definitely slaves in Ancient Rome, but were they treated as horribly as American slaves were? Probably, but genuinely unsure.

          Depends on the slave. Slaves involved in agriculture or mining would have had it really bad. But an educated slave of an important noble might have actually enjoyed quite an elevated social status.

          Well, historically it wasn't only a US thing... Different countries had/have some sort of systemic racist system (as laws/policies enabling/enforcing racism) outside the US. Sadly it's something human societies still use for several reasons.

          We need some kind of linguistic flag system for signaling when we're doing 1) epistemic update 2) correcting injustice 3) signaling allegiance 4) conveying beliefs 5) comforting friend 6) validating friend 7) ideology work 8) culture shifting 9) narrative construction 10) news

          Honest people can be engaging in 1) but end up using language in ways that clash with the others. The other modes often seem to want to redefine words as they are using them. Anybody saying "racism is X" authoritatively usually irks me and doesn't seem to be doing 1).
