This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
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.
If they thought the alternative was better, they would leave. They do not have to work at Twitter if they don't want to. But they are also desperate to stay away from where they came from. They're not literally chattel slaves because they get paid and they are allowed to quit, but they are being put in a very bad position where they are essentially forced to keep working at Twitter if they don't want a life of poverty, and now oppression if they're Muslim, in Mumbai.
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.
