Slavery has been a thing for thousands and thousands of years.

There is, however, a difference between slavery as practised for millennia by people worldwide, and the chattel slavery practised by the Europeans during the ~age of exploration~.

Ooooh do tell us more about how one type of slavery is worse than another type of slavery!

I read "different" not "worse". And there are differences between how the various classical forms of slavery were practiced and the Atlantic slave trade - for example, classical slavery didn't involve transporting large numbers of slave shipments across an obstacle as big as an ocean.

It's a good thing all those Africans helped sell their own people into slavery, huh?

"Africans" is not a people, but actually a continent made up of numerous countries, cultures, and races that have various alliances and conflicts with each other, similar to all those Europeans and their massive wars with each other.

I don't apply U.S. American prejudicial lines to the rest of the world and especially not to world history, maybe you shouldn't, either.

Same culture/race/whatever or not, they still weren't white.

...yes, the vast majority of people on the continent of Africa and transported in the Atlantic slave trade aren't white. Also, the sky is blue and sometimes water comes from it. I'm confused at your point?

And so is Europe, but they're still called Europeans/white. It is a fact that 'black' people sold other black people to white slave traders.

oh yes. only Europeans ever were monsters using a system.

I know you SJW's hate the bible, but that whole "jews in egypt" thing has other sources you know.

And since you all don't even want to think Cleopatra had white features, you'll probably be willing to acknowledge that neither did most of those egyptians. You know, the ones that owned all the slaves and did some fairly horrible stuff to them.

Aside from the Bible? No it doesn't, that I've heard. Can you cite some? This would be news to me, as a historian. It's widely considered to be a myth because there is virtually no evidence it ever happened.

Uh, pretty sure you shouldn't use "chattel" to distinguish European slavery, since that's pretty much the standard form throughout history.
