What is modern slavery?
Modern slavery takes many forms and is known by many names. Essentially, it refers to situations of exploitation that a person cannot refuse or leave because of threats, violence, coercion, or deception.
Modern slavery includes forced labour, forced or servile marriage, debt bondage, forced commercial sexual exploitation, human trafficking, slavery-like practices, and the sale and exploitation of children. In all its forms, it is the removal of a person’s freedom — their freedom to accept or refuse a job, their freedom to leave one employer for another, or their freedom to decide if, when, and whom to marry — in order to exploit them for personal or financial gain.
So, slavery includes being coerced into a job in which you are exploited for financial gain....? 
So where did their data come from?
I spent an hour studying their methodology in hopes of finding the raw data for the DPRK, but I couldn't glean much except that it was not among the surveyed countries.
I emailed info@walkfree.org asking about an hour ago and got the automated reply quoted below. I'll see if anyone gets back to me.
Thank you for your enquiry. Please be advised that your correspondence has been received and will be distributed to a Walk Free representative for follow up where required.

To their credit, they did remove several instances of North Korea from the Department of Labor's "list of products at risk of modern slavery by source country" because they "could not find recent evidence to verify the occurrence of forced labour".
However, they added to the list solar panels from China, because of the "well-known" exploitation occurring there. It then cites an article on the Uyghurs. lol
The U.S. prison population was 1,230,100 at yearend 2022, a 2% increase from yearend 2021 (1,205,100).
- ShowProfit margins go down, number of slaves have to go up, just econ 101
are they just conveniently ignoring amerikkkan prison labor?
sorry sweaty that's constitutional and therefore cool and good
The color coding on the map being inverted for the table is infuriating

Booooo. Real propagandists call all state employees slave laborers.
uncritical support for the DPRK in its heroic struggle to liberate occupied Korea from the genocidal American empire
The DPRK has more slavery than Qatar and Saudi Arabia, neither of which even make the top 10

Here's the absolute knobhead who funds this shit. He should be gulaged, not given heaps of unelected political power.
He is best known as the former CEO (and current non-executive chairman) of Fortescue Metals Group (FMG), and has other interests in the mining industry and in cattle stations.
With an assessed net worth of A$33.29 billion
Totally doesn't own slaves himself.
Of course not, the companies he contracts with own the slaves. His hands are clean.
debt bondage....their freedom to accept or refuse a job, their freedom to leave one employer for another
So when states unemployment services require you to take shitty job offers or when they hang the Sword of Damocles health care over your head dependent on employment while the federal state and instiutions refuse and actively fight to reject universal healthcare.....when there is by official policy a poverty draft due to lack of healthcare or jobs supplying adequate income...
it would be very funny if they just took 10% of the population and plopped it in there. Because it's suspiciously close to exactly 10%
50.000 slaves within germany seems like, a lot. Not saying it's wrong but it's not something I'd go boasting about.
Germany is the chief recipient of human trafficking in Europe. Waves of migrants and refugees from postsocialist countries were making thing much worse. 2014 huge emmigration wave and 2022 wave of refugees from Ukraine means that the number of 50000 is probably much lower than real one.
Crazy how the DPRK is on that top 10 but America's slave prison's aren't
would be way higher up the list, but this is modern slavery. They still use the old-fashioned kindIs there a good article or essay or study or anything that helps articulate why these NGOs suck ass and shouldn't be trusted? It seems like every other week there's some new NGO with some new report about america's enemies.
The Human Rights Concern Troll Industrial Complex from
comes close.
In line with normal inflation numbers!
