Slavery and repression are automatically abolished by automation because it creates different economic conditions. When slavery existed, 50% of the people were needed to work on farms just to feed everyone. Today less than 2% of people work on farms.
Economists (and a quick look around at the reality) will tell you that both the richer and the poorer nation are improved by trade. The nations that the US was trading with in this way 30-40 years ago, are now amongst the richest nations of the world. Nothing else in centuries of history put them in that position. If they felt oppressed at the time it was good they shut up about it because the rising economic tides floated their boats right out of extreme poverty. If you want people not to starve, get the US to oppress them culturally and with trade. Here's the biggest example in a graphic I created two years ago, and if you don't get it after staring at this for a while, you'll never get it. Which side of the line is the oppression on again?
