Wizards of the Coast is absolutely not afraid of including slavery in their products. As long as it's made clear that the slavery is bad, it's okay to include it, and WotC knows this. They still have Drow, Mind Flayers, Duergar, Neogi, Aboleths, and tons of other monsters and races that enslave other creatures/peoples. They are absolutely fine with including slavery in a D&D product. Out of the Abyss starts with the PCs escaping from a Drow Slave Camp, Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes talks at length about slavery amongst the Duergar, Drow, and Mind Flayers, and plenty of other official 5e products do the same thing. This is just not true. Slavery is obviously evil in Dark Sun. WotC knows that it can include slavery in official products if they reinforce that slavery is evil. If Dark Sun ever comes to D&D 5e, I absolutely expect them to keep slavery in the setting. People that think it will be removed are fundamentally misunderstanding both WotC and most people's complaints about slavery in various medias.</blockquote>
