No, The practical upshot (apart from reading comprehension) is that prison labor is being mis-defined as "slavery" to make objections to it sound stronger. IMO that devalues people who have experienced real slavery. There's nothing wrong with objecting to prison labor, just don't call it "slavery" because it isn't. That's my point, my whole point and my only point here. No need to turn it into anything else.
