One small historical note: many First Nations tribes commonly raided one another and took slaves. Of course, they had no plantation system and commerce, so the scale was personal and quite moderate compared to mercantile slavery.
But, to your larger effort, you give a good listing of various catalyst which would upset any sensible being, truly. This drives you to look inside and you arrive some particular conclusions which lead you to search for the sun behind the clouds. But the same stimulus leads others to seek even darker clouds.
William Blake:
Both read the Bible day and night,
But thou read'st black where I read white.
Some chase violent storms, some seek beautiful sunsets. One thing I'll say for our disguised friend, he comes across as a sincere seeker, and I appreciate that. The essence of sincerity is to be what one is, to act according to what one knows within, is it not?
