The White European should be praised for their actions concerning slavery

Comes up on the first page of google, they had the exact same problems as western countries, it's just there are people like you who choose to ignore that and you could still argue that the way marriage works in those countries is basically the enslavement of women, but then again, I'm pretty much against marriage as it is.

What other country had race based slavery where they treated the workers like cattle?

You are really REALLY arguing that the US invented raced based slavery? I guess ancient Egypt doesn't count...

Did Ancient Egyptians own slaves in the 19th century?

Not that I am aware of...thats a nice qualifier you added after the fact once you realize you were incorrect, but in order for some group or individual to have invented something they have to be the first to exhibit that practice correct?

Telling me to google a phrase is not an argument or a source. "Race based slavery" existed LONG before the US did. Just because popular media portrays all slavery as Africans held by Americans doesn't mean it was invented in the US. Here is one example of raced based slavery before the US. I am sure there are many more.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_African_Company

Slavery has existed for thousands of year, it was huge in Africa, the Africans were indeed the biggest slavers of Africans and were the ones who sold Africans to Americans; slavery was big in the middle east and existed in Asia too

The European, more precisely catholics white europeans were the first one to abolish it and push for its global abolition and they succeeded; yet they seem to have the ones who get the shame now!? It's very stupid and giving blame to Europeans or white for slavery is changing history since every culture and all ethnic groups were having slaves and white were the first one to abolish it

By the way, the current problems of the Black community in the USA are due to government programs that are suppose to help them but keep them in poverty and it's due to the fight against marijuana that results in way more negative than positive

Pointing out that they were pioneers in the race based slave trade is not "blaming" Europe, simply pointing out it is not an American invention regardless of how the media portrays it. Also doesn't Europe deserve its share of the blame? After all it did practice slavery as well, and certainly profited handsomely from the trade in the Americas.

Race base slavery was obviously not invented by the USA but it wasn't invented by Europe either, slavery in Africa was between different ethnicities.

All regions of the world had slaves, Europe didn't have more than other regions, it had less and there are the first ones who started the movement of abolition and succeeded first then pushed for everyone to abolish slavery and still do; if it wasn't for Europe there would probably still be slaves in most countries so there deserve less blame than than the middle easterners, less blame than the Asians or Americans and especially less blame than the Africans where slavery is still big : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery_in_Africa

White Europeans have their problems but when we are talking about slavery, they are the first ones who abolish it when everyone was having slaves

While I agree Europe probably didn't invent race slavery, they most certainly did house the worlds LARGEST raced based slave trade corporations, and made the most profit from the trade. As far as them deserving less blame because they were some of the early pioneers of abolition of slavery is not exactly valid either. A bad act doesn't erase a good act just as good doesn't erase a bad act.

They didn't start it and they were the sole first ones to abolish it and when it comes to being the world's largest raced based slave trade corporations owners, can't tell you 100% it is not true because don't have the statistics but let's find them and know for sure, my instinct tells me they were not the biggest slavers at any time of history

White people were the only ones that fought a civil war to try and keep slavery

They were the only ones that hung abolitionists

[duke1839]

In America, white people hated slavery because it undercut white working class people in terms of wages.  You can't beat free labor!  Whites also hated slavery because there were laws requiring people to patrol for runaway slaves even if they didn't want to.  Most of the people on forced patrol were thinking, "Why the hell is it my responsibility to look for runaway slaves?  Shouldn't the damn slave owner be the one doing this?"

You know a civil war has 2 sides right? Who do you think was fighting the South? Canada? Was the North composed of Chinese people?

What you stated was an opinion. "If it wasn't for Europe there would probably still be slaves in most countries so there deserve less blame than the middle easterners, less blame than the Asians or Americans and especially less blame than the Africans where slavery is still big." That's your exact quote. Note that there is no historical fact there, it is 100% pure opinion. It's your opinion I'm taking issue with, because the underlying tone of your opinion is racist. You can tell it's racist by the fact that you're obsessed with proving whites, as a race, deserve more credit than other races (in your words: Middle Easterners, Asians, and especially Africans) on slavery. Your opinion is implying whites are better because they did something better than the other races you mentioned.

That's what is annoying me so much.

Yeah, the other party was fighting for their freedom, the same way our founding fathers fought for our freedom from the British, and the same way we are fighting for our freedom from an oppressive government

You probably thought I lost it but you will understand what I mean if you watch the end of the Stefan Molyneux's video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=auQJMLWx6og&list=UUC3L8QaxqEGUiBC252GHy3w

Molyneux is very direct but after you are shocked by what he is saying you usually start thinking that what he is saying make a lot of sense; in this video, he is talking about the fact that slavery was present in every culture and most countries for thousands of years : Africa, Americas, Middle East, Asia and Europe until Europeans fought to abolish it, yet we still hear that the White Europeans were the biggest bad guys concerning slavery and should feel ashamed when they should be praised if anything

How is abolishing slavery working out for European and American so far?

Your country is being practically conquered by cock.
