The latter from what I’ve read. If anything the earliest American slave traders were bringing an old system to a new market where it could scale due to Europe showing up. Probably thought of themselves like real estate developers in Brooklyn do.
@JCFoster I was mostly jesting, but yeah. Being from Brazil, the story we learn in school is that the Portuguese first tried the enslave indigenous populations (who already had a non-commercial version of slavery going on), but it proved too difficult. Most of the time they would just die from diseases or escape into the jungle and the Portuguese would never see them again. The Portuguese, however, ran a successful small scale pilot of African slavery in places like Madeira, so they were probably stoked to bring African slaves to America when indigenous slavery was a bust.
The country was built mostly from slave labor (or indentured servants) so the joke is that he's asking them nicely when they really weren't asked at all...
I’ve had some success crossposting to insta so my plan lately is to do a big haul of daily posts of these RUclips videos as soon as I have enough new ones to make a daily backlog on the short form sites. Luckily regular format sometimes blows up for me and gains me subs.
@@JCFosterI make shorts and long form videos for a living. A short of mine recently went over a third a million views. Sounds like you have a good hold on scaling, but if you want some ideas I’d be happy to share what else I have learned. Your channel content is definitely anomalous. Keep it up, amigo. 😎👍🏻
I made a bluesky for shitposting and I'm holding a poll:

dont know why this made me laugh so hard

this is 100% accurate though @@JCFoster
Do you think the first slaveowners felt awkward about it or did they just immediately get into it and thought "yep, this is normal"?

You’d probably get more views if you uploaded this as a vertical short. Monetization wouldn’t be as good though. Do both.
