Okay so I looked up the name and it's something called "Federal Prison Industries"? Which is already a very alarming name, but apparently they're behind that brand with cutesy unicorns that's all over various stores in my city. What the hell?

I heard Unicor name from Daniel Dumbrill 3 or so years ago in one of his rants. I was careful to hold onto it, they sell jailed Black/Muslim slaves for like 38 cents per hour. Its a whole online e-commerce like portal that US government runs. It was one of the things that really made me rage.

Sorry, I am confused. Do they sell them physically? As in, Joe Business can just stroll into a prison and say "Yeah, I'd have uuuhh twenty blacks and five Arabs, wrap em"? Or am I having a brain fart and you mean selling their labour?

Renting them for labour, that is what Unicor prison business is. But it is kind of selling people in that way, where some corpo or client of US government can pick slaves from them like that.

Renting for labor implies physical relocation, doesn't it? That's insane. You're right, it is slavery

Yes, they are relocated to factory prisons or straight up plantations where they are used as slave labor.
