This is a normal post you're immature because...
you compare a workfare (as opposed to welfare) scheme to slavery. beyond hyperbole, just utterly fatuous really. do you actually know what the reality of slavery was?

This is a normal post JamTallons compared his own internship to slavery.
His words, not mine.

This is a normal post he was clearly employing hyperbole to illustrate how shit it was...
you are using it as you wallow in your self-righteous poltical indignation. it's pretty fucking sick to compare low wages to slavery and shows profound ignorance. it's real SWP bullshit.

This is a normal post it wasn't.
read the ruling. it's been ruled unlawful. largely down to our old friend the HRA as derived from the ECHR. the judge did not describe it as forced labour and certainly not as slavery. that's just SWP bullshit and lies.

This is a normal post uh, yes, we did...
would you like to borrow my Amistad DVD?* you really seem to have a great deal of difficulty understanding the true meaning of a very fucking simple word.

This is a normal post I'm just trying to point out
that three people compared unpaid work to slavery before I did, and somehow I'm the only one to be called immature for repeating it, in a direct reply, the point of which is to call out the fallacy of the argument, "I had to do it, therefore it's fine".

I didn't even make the comparison myself. Three other people did and got away with it.

This is a normal post I was a runner at a place in Soho for a year and was basically a slave. .
Who compared what now to what now?
And we all know what slavery was like, we watched Django Unchained
