No, the vast majority of the states still have slave labor. The 13th amendment aboloshed slavery “except as punishment for a crime.” Last I checked only six states had changed their state constitutions to abolish all slavery, even in prison, though several others had ballot measures to do the same, so maybe there’s more now.

It’s also important to note that while middle class white people might have had an existence like the image states, it was only possible by pushing the failures of capitalism onto minorities, mostly Black people.

I’ve got this. My clothes basically melt off me, so I have to wear construction-grade clothing just to have it last a normal amount of time.

I never made the connection between my glasses, but that explains why they last so much longer when I switched to bulky plastic frames.
