My issue really isn’t how fair it is or isn’t, and you can always bring up the most unfavorable laws as if they’re a universal standard. My issue is simply with calling prison labor “slavery”, which not only is inaccurate but cheapens the experience of people who have endured actual slavery.
What are you thinking slavery actually was? American slavery ended up being the worst kind. But there were all kinds of other slaves throughout history. At the end of the day, forced labor is slavery. Even if it has an end date.

If by “at the end of the day” you mean “overdramatic words make my argument sound stronger.”
