Damn we had it in the Netherlands, kids working the mines. We abolished slavery before child slavery. Catholic church pressed mothers pooping out baby’s as many as their womb allowed before dying to praise our god and work the mines. Fucking bleak.

Krass finde ich auch, wie diese Kinder im Gesicht gealtert sind. Das sind Greise im Körper von Kindern.

Edit: Sorry, I forgot that the post was in English:

It is remarkable how these children have aged (see their faces). These are old people in the bodies of children.
