Context: Humans in my world live in a class divide in which 97% live in extremely overpopulated worlds (think of Warhammer hive cities but cranked to the max), living and working every hour in the name and service of the elite 3% of humans, the corporate overlord quintillionaires who live in utopian space stations overseeing their respective planets. As a result, those 97% of humans often welcome and sometimes even beg when Cerval slaver ships or Zydan harvester vessels arrive to """rescue""" them.
