Indentured servitude is opresssion.

Indentured servitude is not chattel slavery.

The Irish were oppressed and have a history of indentured servitude.

The Irish were not bought and sold or held as property generation to generation.

Please stop confusing the two. Thanks.

If you can be ‘silenced’ by pointing out facts which contradict your narrative, you weren’t saying anything of worth anyway.
