So slaves?
Essentially, yes. But slaves who apparently feel like the alternative is worse. Obviously, that doesn't justify anything, it just makes it even more depressing.
There was a never a slave who thought the alternative was better. That's how slavery exists.
What the hell are you talking about? I'm pretty sure the millions of people the Romans enslaved did not volunteer for a better life but were in fact brutalized through violence and abducted from their homes.
