That’s straight up motto of the ancap types, so you gotta specify that “most” cuz some people believe selling your own self to slavery would be such a case
slavery wouldn’t ever be voluntary, since any rational person would only decide to sell themself into slavery due to material hardship, so they’d be a victim and the slaveowner would profit from their suffering, thereby indirectly funding the economic conditions that led to slavery. and any irrational person would lack the mental capacity to have signed such a contract. in either case the contract would be unconscionable, rendering it invalid.
