Who did this and why?

Just learned that only 388,000 Africans came to the US as slaves, while about 1 million white Christian Europeans were enslaved by Muslims in Northern Africa. by taylor in conspiracy

He inexplicably pigtailed 450,000 alleged slaves on to the total. Rounding up the total estimate by almost 50% in the surrounding centuries.

He explained in the article how he arrived at his conclusion.

So Davis developed a new methodology to come up with reasonable estimates of the number of slaves along the Barbary Coast. Davis found the best records available indicating how many slaves were at a particular location at a single time. He then estimated how many new slaves it would take to replace slaves as they died, escaped or were ransomed.

“The only way I could come up with hard numbers is to turn the whole problem upside down – figure out how many slaves they would have to capture to maintain a certain level,” he said. “It is not the best way to make population estimates, but it is the only way with the limited records available.”

Putting together such sources of attrition as deaths, escapes, ransomings, and conversions, Davis calculated that about one-fourth of slaves had to be replaced each year to keep the slave population stable, as it apparently was between 1580 and 1680. That meant about 8,500 new slaves had to be captured each year. Overall, this suggests nearly a million slaves would have been taken captive during this period. Using the same methodology, Davis has estimated as many as 475,000 additional slaves were taken in the previous and following centuries.

The result is that between 1530 and 1780 there were almost certainly 1 million and quite possibly as many as 1.25 million white, European Christians enslaved by the Muslims of the Barbary Coast.

Then you said:

Wouldn't some documented accounting of this exist within the Catholic Church?

If there really were between 1 million and 1.25 million white Christian Europeans enslaved in the Barbary Trade, the Church probably does have such statistics, and it's possible that they keep these stats secret so they can push whatever agenda. I feel like that agenda has something to do with making whites feel like inherently racist oppressors. Haven't quite decided why they would want to make whites feel like that, but the common denominator in all slave trades regardless of race seems to be, surprise surprise, Jews.

It's definitely possible that his estimate of 1 million - 1.25 million is wrong, but remember this isn't just some random dude making these claims - he's a professor of history at Ohio State. Not appeal to authority, but this stuff is important to note.

And more importantly, even if it is wrong, there were almost certainly more than 380,000 white Christian Europeans enslaved by black Africans in North Africa between 1500 and 1800.

“One of the things that both the public and many scholars have tended to take as given is that slavery was always racial in nature – that only blacks have been slaves. But that is not true,” Davis said. “We cannot think of slavery as something that only white people did to black people.”

Even Americans were not immune. For example, one American slave reported that 130 other American seamen had been enslaved by the Algerians in the Mediterranean and Atlantic just between 1785 and 1793.

That's basically the point I'm trying to make.

But the brain is the body too 🤨

And how can you be the body? Every cell in your body is replaced numerous times over your lifetime, yet your consciousness stays the same.

And there are 380 trillion viruses in your body and 30 trillion bacteria, yet only about 40 trillion cells with your own DNA.

If you try to counter any of the racist shit over there on voat, you get downvoted into oblivion and then are limited to 1 reply per 24 hours. Really bad system.

But Reddit doesn't ban the actual direct link to the study. Hmmm.

I never thought about this specific scenario, but it would probably be the best way to go about doing this. I just assumed that the CIA had something to do with it. The US stands to gain the most from this virus. China is ruined for decades, if not generations. This virus pretty much guarantees Trump a win in the trade war, kills China's economy and reputation, and ensures China won't take over the US economically or militarily anytime soon. And this is before we even know the entire truth of what's happening on the ground there.

One thing I find to be super suspicious is that as soon as Coronavirus breaks out, the US government arrests like 5 people with illegal connections to China: Harvard professor and chair of genetic department; Chinese students in the US including one PLA member; a Raytheon engineer who was allegedly selling US missile secrets to China; two Chinese students who were taking pics of a military base; charging Huawei with racketeering and threatening to sanction any other country who does business with Huawei.

All of these within a month of the virus breaking out. No way this is a coincidence.
