Calling something the “gravest crime” seems kind of strange. So genocide is better? Mass rape? Why compare?

The Transatlantic slave trade lasted for centuries and included both genocide and rape and way more

Yeah but Hitler did a pretty good speedrun too.

He did a lot, and still wasn't on the same scale.

I don't understand the goal of making a superlative statement. Any government not run by ghouls would condemn slavery.
Inbe4 " my least favorite government would totally not condemn slavery as a concept lolololol"
