I loved it too until I forgot my wallet one day. It's the one thing I had to go back to stock Android for because I forget everything but my phone constantly.
Also slavery was typically nowhere near as a different sort of brutal in that era. Still brutal and terrible, but not "working people to death and then shipping in more people to work to death" brutal.

And check your local inheritance laws. Some places will take pre-death gifts into account depending on how long the time between gift and death is. The UK, as an example, looks at gifts made up to 7 years before a person's death. It's messed up.
I have no doubt that some crazed conservative is out there shock-collaring their dogs or worse for "homosexual behaviour." They're absolutely deranged.
I live with such a person and you are correct. It really is their whole life. Said person put their hands on me and tried to shout the demons out of me because I disagreed with them.
I think part of the issue is that there's a lot more predatory shit on the internet nowadays. I say this as a person who has had unfettered access to the internet since my tweens. Social media and The Algorithms have changed the internet, and not necessarily for the better.
Just as a for-instance, if you go to YouTube on a freshly installed browser without logging in, the front page is kind of wild. Then the algorithm will pull you down a rabbit hole and kids who haven't been taught that they're being manipulated are going to start taking everything as fact from people like Tate.
We didn't have things trying to get in our heads to this extent; while I do wish the kids had their freedom, I also recognise that the internet has become hell. I can understand why parents would try to shield their kids from that.
