      Why was American slavery so much worse than other forms of slavery throughout history?

      Sorry - to clarify, I'm not asking about features of american slavery that were worse, I'm asking about the original causes - why was it that everybody ended up deciding to be worse, where people didn't seem to make those decisions in other places in history?

          Perhaps more differentiation between slave and non-slave population than in other instances, which helps embed dehumanization in the culture and it grows. Also perhaps cognitive dissonance leading to frustration/extremity because of the enlightenment and founding ideal backdrop.

          We’re supposed to be better than that. Kinda like the shock of nazi-ism growing out of a culturally liberal Germany.

          I'm not convinced it was much worse than other variants. My suspicion is that part of the difference is we just have a lot more sources/eye witness accounts of just how bad it was. If I do need to give an explanation for it being actually worse, the racial basis seems likely.

          I think the key you’re looking for was Western Europeans and sub-Saharan Africans shared no common heritage. Consider the breadth of Indo-European language family, from Europe to the Himalayas & the Ganges. We all outgroup but Persians & Babylonians for example were alike in ..

          Culture and appearance, relatively speaking.

          spitballing: the slaver class was much more willing and able to coordinate en masse than at any other point in history, and they were better able to distinguish physically and culturally between themselves and the enslaved, lessening the degree of empathy they might feel.

          My guess for this question is geography. Earlier empires simply couldn't relocate people to the same degree. "Slaves that might rebel somewhere else" are a much smaller problem than "slaves that might rebel right here".

          Relocating people - breaking up families, hierarchies, social structures, et cetera - also allows you to more effectively oppress them than if you permit existing structures to stay, which many earlier empires kind of had to.

          US freed their slaves, so the direct link exists today. Other places tended to destroy most if not all traces... there are more direct descendants of slaves in US than anywhere else (Brazil?), despite other places having greater quantities of slaves. Ghosts in the machine.
