“involvuntary indentured servant” screams euphemism all over it, but people still use it to refer to the many servants that did not even choose to do labor abroad (kidnapped mostly children and women, prisoners who were purposely “guilty” of the most trivial and ridiculous crimes, trickery, etc) Even the contracts of the *voluntary* servant immigrants were routinely broken, completely contradicting to the very meaning of being an “indentured servant”.It’s not like it’s some big “secret” or “conspiracy theory”, it’s well documented. The only real difference between the history of slavery and indentured servitude is that you can hide behind shady marketing as a scapegoat to the white ones.
loopholes are a ***** and government secrets are never good.
My ancestor was an involuntary indentured servant in 1640. The difference between that and slavery, was that is was for only a specific time, afterward he was a free man. His children were also free.
You named the difference yourself.
