Comparing the loss of a job (And wishing them luck in finding another outlet!) to slavery, discrimination and so forth are completely and utterly different issues.

You will need to come back with a more logical argument... Rather than whatever the hell that was.

I'm not making a direct comparison, people really missed the point :p

It's more of what we think of as "normal", once slavery was "normal" now its not (I also mentioned how women were and are treated, but that didn't even get a mention, straight to the most emotive point lol), this situation may seem "normal" so it doesn't garner much attention, but it really is something that needs to change imo

Again, you are conflating two completely different things.

You can always find another/better job. A slave isn't going to find a new/better slave master.

I am getting your point on what is "deemed" normal and how things that were deemed normal has changed over time...
But loosing a job isn't the end of the world, it's not that big of a deal, there is plenty of work out there, plenty of career paths that can be taken.
I was working in Health once, decided to throw it all in and changed into fire and rescue.

You are not entitled to a 100% secured job forever, things change, companies/businesses/organizations go through periods of booms and busts.

But comparing it to discrimination or slavery to backup your arguments is downright disgusting, I am part of the LGBTQI community, I actually know what discrimination is.

The fact management can be rewarded for a poorly run business and the only the ones that suffer are the employees is pretty bad, surely some of you can see that  

What part of "Hope they find new employment quickly" didn't you grasp?

It's certainly not wishing ill on the individuals. - And it is certainly not praising management for receiving a bonus whilst they cut off employees.
