    Really, I'm usually the type to read about stuff but not watch the actual footage because I want to be able to sleep at night, but for some reason I watched that, and it's bad. You're watching a human being being sold right before your eyes. I've never forgotten it, and I honestly don't recommend that anyone else watch either.

        OK, I'm skimming the articles, and here's the first one to contextualize the slave trade with the US invasion of Libya. The rest of them so far totally ignore why they're able to operate with impunity: https://www.irishtimes.com/news/world/africa/inside-the-smuggler-s-warehouse-africa-s-21st-century-slave-trade-1.4224073
