"slavery, while far from ideal, is not itself immoral."
Anybody who claims this, should be asked how his opinion would change if he himself would be the slave.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meno%27s_slave

Meno's slave is a character in the Socratic dialogue, Meno, which was written by Plato.
Socrates demonstrates his method of questioning and recollection by questioning a slave boy who works in Meno's house. This house slave is ignorant of geometry. The subsequent discussion shows the slave capable of learning a complicated geometry problem. In this way, Socrates shows Meno that learning is possible. Indeed, the dialogue earlier demonstrated Meno's failure to benefit from Socratic teaching.
