    You can argue that just about anything has some benefit to someone. Whatever doesn’t kill you makes you stronger and all

    But you know having a better quality of life with more opportunities will exponentially benefit you more than any of that shit. On top of you know, having the actual ability to do something that you would actually enjoy doing with your skillset.

    All this to say that trying to push the idea that being a slave wasn’t all bad has absolutely no beneficial views period.
