I think the biggest redpill about slavery for me was from reading Dylann Roof's manifesto. In truth, very few whites owned slaves, and for the ones that did, they were only in the South. But yet white people from all over the US, Southerner or not has to take the blame for it anyways. And not only that, but the mistreatment of slaves was greatly exaggerated in history books. Roof even mentioned that he read all the slave narratives in his state and the overwhelming majority of them were positive, including one where a slave recounted the day his mistress died as being one of the saddest days of his life. And not only that, but in the few cases where slaves were mistreated, the slave owners could and would be prosecuted for it, just like if they mistreated anybody else. It was much easier to prosecute slave owners for murder or mistreatment of someone else's slave, since in that case the owner of the victimized slave could testify (although, as in the case of State v. Mann, that wasn't always enough). And of course slave owners could easily be punished for murdering or mistreating free people. But given that situation, the answer is yes, but extremely rarely. Isaac Jones was sentenced to death for murdering his slave in 1821, and his punishment was upheld by the Mississippi Supreme Court. In South Carolina, Martin Posey was convicted and hanged for murdering a slave named App, but he was also convicted for murdering his own wife; Posey had ordered App to do the deed for him and then murdered App to cover his tracks. Whether Posey would have been convicted for murdering just App, without murdering his white wife too, is an open question. In the 1851 case of Souther v. the Commonwealth, a Virginia slave owner who horrifically tortured his slave to death in front of several witnesses was convicted of murder, but sentenced only to five years in prison; a similar case in 1839 produced a death penalty for a sadistic North Carolina slave owner, State v. Hoover.
And then you had the case of Delphine LaLaurie, who was a serial killer who tortured and murdered her slaves who fled a lynch mob that burned down her mansion in Louisiana and lived the rest of her life in exile in France.
Do these sound like the hallmark of a society that just wants to keep the black man down? In South Africa, for the niggers that murder whites, NONE of them are ever prosecuted (much less given the death penalty). And secondly is segregation. If segregation was such an oppressive system against blacks, why did the majority of pro-black leaders during the Civil Rights era (except for Michael King) want segregation? Why is it that the majority of black people even to this day still want segregation if it was so oppressive? As for lynchings and race riots, those did happen, but often times for a reason (like a rape, murder or some other crime) and even then, only a few thousand people in total have ever died from a lynching in all of United States history. And sure discrimination against black people did happen, but that is to be expected as being a foreigner in another man's society. Just like how in Japan they discriminate against other races, how in post-Apartheid South Africa the blacks horribly oppress white people, and the same holds true in basically every society. The dominant race that makes up the majority always makes the rules (just like non-Jews in Israel). This is nothing new or unique nor is it only exclusive to black people in the US.
Fun fact: the Irish actually suffered more as slaves than niggers ever did.
