Probably the closest most Americans have come to idealizing slavery, Mencius Moldbug says, without of course knowing it, is in the good press that large Japanese corporations once got for maintaining a policy of lifetime employment:
Lifetime employment and slavery are, of course, practically synonyms, and indeed the same phenomena of reciprocal loyalty and dependency were said — repeatedly, in my memory, in the ’90s on NPR — to emerge. Right down to the company uniform and song.
He considers this a “Carlylean” bond, although a rather weird one to the Western eye.
