this in a nutshell is why so many people are so angry when they get told that no every exploitative employment situation is not indenture , only indenture is indenture
I think basically folks have learned you can’t say ‘like slavery’ any more (because woke ;) ) and are struggling to find the next worst but okay to say option.

This is debt indenture and it should be illegal.
Law school cost me $190,000.
I have paid $206,000 since graduation.
I now owe $223,000.
I pay $830 per month, and next year it will be more.
I genuinely believe law school student loans are designed to make pro bono representation impossible.

Indenture.
Indentured labourers typically had shorter periods of indenture than this in the 19-th century British empire.
"Under a 10-20 year system, a worker would spend a decade or more in which their entire immigration status — and [thus] their family’s home, their children’s schooling, their right to remain — depends on maintaining the goodwill of a single employer. That is a structurally coercive relationship."

You can call the way visas work coercive as fuck without using language that minimizes the horrors of slavery and indenture
no a $71k job with benefits to work at Twitter is not "indentured servitude" even if you'll have to leave the country if you quit, it is in fact the literal opposite of indenture where you cannot leave and cannot quit please learn what words mean before making a cake of yourself in public like this

ICE officers getting paid for standing around doing nothing while TSA employees work without pay is a pretty succinct summation of where we're at right now

Labour gives capital all its wealth. The traditional deal is that Capital at least owes labour a living. Any less isn't capitalism it's indenture.
