I’m not a slave owner, but I don’t scoff at slave owning. it’s pretty widespread — most cultures at most times (so far as we know) have been slave owners (depending on how you define slave owning). There has to be a reason. Perhaps slave owning has a certain survival value.

I’m okay with slave owning as metaphor, though I suspect most slave owners wouldn’t accept that description.
I’m not a slave owner, but I don’t call myself anti slavery, except if pressed.
