My 2 cents....

Your 2 cents is fair. I am not denying it still goes in the real world. However, we might as well then say the same about violence? People are killed in conflict zones in many countries throughout the world. In PvP games not only do we accept it but we actually glorify in it. It just seems to me that because of the whole race/political thing slavery receives undue attention. Slavery is after all a
criminal activity in the modern world. It's no longer an accepted political and/or nationalist agenda for anyone - I'm not including 1 or 2 crackpot states of course.
Personally I have no need to have it in a game. I think it would not add much value. But I disagree as to the reason why it should be excluded.
We could also start with fantasy-religion intolerance... but I'll stop now.
