Imagine you're on a sugarcane plantation in the Caribbean. You need a machete to cut sugarcane.

You're gonna hand 100 ppl that you're supposedly keeping under oppression machetes?

Being a plantation owner had to be very dangerous.

It never happened. Plain and simple. Whats much more likely is a bunch of kikes told those niggers they could live the good life and then boated them over en masse to start working the fields etc. No chains, no whips, no missing appendages, just the exact same system we have now with NGOs and their corporate leaders. Probably the same families doing it now that we're doing it back then.

You don't understand, the slaves just didn't. It turns out it's exceptionally possible to suppress an enormous amount of people with only a handful of armed men. This has been true all throughout history, even in your yeehaw patriotic country. Revolutions are not just rare, they happen when the revolutionaries are supported by very powerful allies. Otherwise they are almost trivial to put down with barely any violence at all, given sufficient will. So the explanation is a combination of how the slaves were relatively content with their lot (compared to violent struggle) and the futility of that same struggle preventing it from even happening. Or TLDR: life wasn't hell on earth, and you dont mob rush a bunch of guards except in hollywood

Caribbean sugar plantation slavery was brutal. Most sugar plantation slaves were worked to death within a year or so. Most were underfed and any sign whatsoever of rebellion was met with overwhelming brutality. North American cotton plantation slaves had it relatively easy by comparison. Note that Jamaica alone used up almost a million and a half African slaves while the total number of slaves imported to North America was less than half a million.

I think slavery of blacks in America, never happened.
After the covid-19 pandemic we all saw them lie to us and gaslight history, in the present, in real time.
It is even easier to do this with stories from 400 years ago.
Black Americans, (as a group though not every single individual ) are surly, lazy, loud, obnoxious, belligerent and dumb.
They are bad at working.
And think about this. Would you trust blacks yo prepare and cook your families meals? Or to be nannies and raise your children?
None of the story we are told about American slavery adds up.
I call bullshit.

Most slaves were mentally broken (learned helplessness, as shrinks would all it), and in the few cases where they were not, there were slave rebellions and dead slave owners. Those were quickly defeated every time, though, which elad to surviving slaves being even less willing to rise up.
If you read contemporary reports (summed up in kurt saxons "root rot", for example - that old nazi certainly didn't favor blacks in his selection of sources), there's plenty of stories of african slaves being tortured so badly by other africans that they just blindly did whatever they were told to do, up to the point of letting themselves be killed with no resistance.
Add to that that (most) white slave owners, while not exactly friendly, did not kill or cripple slaves for no reason (don't want to damage your tools, after all), and plantations might well have seemed like paradise to first-generation slaves.

Where it gets more interesting is rubber plantations, where indios were enslaved. Those people didn't have a culture of slavery, yet still, the vast majority of them was controlled by only a handful of whites within a few years. Mostly by divide and conquer, allying with one tribe for a while, then subduing them after their former enemies were already brought under control.

The same way completely outnumbered prison guards maintain control of niggers in prisons, you find the head nigger in charge and give him things the other niggers don't get, then in an effort to keep his status the alpha nigger keeps the other niggers in line. The power structure was not two tiers consisting of owner and slaves, there were tiers amongst the slaves with limited room at the top for those willing to benefit off their ability to control the lesser niggers. When this system fails, you get your revolts, be it in plantations of old or prisons today.

Everybody else running slaves made America look like the minor leagues. The muslims were the worst by far. They had no fields to work. They castrated the males and forced them into mamluke divisions in their military to serve as meat waves. The women were to be wives, sex slaves, concubines and maids. They did this for over 1,300 years.

This.
I would also add that if you look at where it did happen - Haiti. It wasn't the slaves that rebelled, it was the large mulatto population, educated and brought up in the white mans world. The slaves where "recruited" into the rebellion, they weren't the instigators.
If you are operating at the bottom of maslows pyramide, you might fight for your life (in the face of an imminent threat) or a meal, but not abstract ideas of freedom.

They talk about this in the book 1984 by George Orwell. It's mentioned that revolutions are always started by the upper middle class, which wants to become upper class, and leverages the lower class to achieve these goals.

If you look at medieval societies, kings usually bend over backwards to appeal to the peasants, and try to pirtray themselves as protecting the peasants from the nobility. This is because the nobility is always at odds with royalty and want to usurp their position. As good as nobles have it, they still want to feel more special.

You see the same kind of envy among university students. Who goes to universities? The children of the rich and upper middle class. And those same students blather on about inequality and worker's rights, as though they've ever done an honest day's work in their life. In reality, they are trying to achieve two goals: Avoid the wrath if the proletariat, and direct said wrath at their class enemies (either the upper class or the potential usurper).

You would think the lower class benefits from such an arrangement, but in reality, these policies only end up hurting everyone because they're all divisive and braindead handouts, if not outright purges.

Afro-anon is right. I hate to say it, but the real problem with American niggers isn't that they live in fear of cops or klansmen, it's that they DON'T live in fear. The reason why every African government runs the way it runs is because it has to.

Blacks who sold other blacks even warned white buyers to keep them well-whipped. Arabs had the good sense to castrate their slaves.

>>511344034
>>511344034

Smart blacks got promotions. House slaves and overseers, the smartest and most morally upstanding of blacks, were treated well and put in command of the field niggers. So anyone who did try rebelling would have the smarter and braver element of their own people fighting against them.

This is why terror is inherent to slavery. If you're not constantly terrorizing and buck breaking your slaves, you are a DEAD slave owner.
The "benevolent slave owner" narrative is a meme.
The institution of slavery is just simply a bad deal, they vastly outnumber you, are mad as hell and have nothing to lose, that is too much for cheap labor. The Greeks knew that, the Romans knew that, and the Southerners were about to learn that too. Had it not been for the war, the South would have experienced a massive chimp out that they would not be able to contain. It would've been Haiti 2.0.

They never tell you about what happens to a slave that's no longer young and strong enough to works the fields either. Because they don't want you to know they basically set them free around the age of 50 or so. And then continued to feed, cloth, house, and provide medical care for them (like they did for all their other slaves) for the rest of their natural lives.
Don't be mistaken, slavery was bad. But it was infinitely better to be one in the colonies/early America than to be one in the Caribbean/South America, or any of the Arab states.

70 well equipped/trained/paid men can keep hundreds of men in submission in the right circumstances. When you can effectively control the borders and keep your workers in a constant state of exhaustion, you can create a prison with no walls. Add control of food, medicine, and a healthy bit of reward for snitches, and your inmates will police themselves.

I always thought that to be the case. And that racial motivated white-on-black violence and Klan violent incidents pale in comparison to what blacks do on a regular basis.
This exaggeration of "muh triple K" and white cops shooting blacks by the mainstream media, and the fact that the media also does everything it can to hide the black-on-white crime reality, shows that blacks are not as oppressed as one is led to believe, and that it is the average white fella who fears for his life whenever he is walking the streets.

there were over 250 slave revolts and over 100 rebellions or uprisings in the USA since 1619 but America just hides this information and doesnt talk about it much. You ever had even 1 chapter of your American history textbook dedicated to slave uprisings?
