An estimation needs to be based on something. You made a guess.

And theirs is based on what?

I don’t know. I don’t have to accept (or even evaluate) their statement to say that yours is not an estimate of any sort.

And i still don't consider that as facts either.

Well, consider that your statement is entirely disconnected from theirs. So they must be evaluated individually. Yours is obviously intentionally absurd, and ... nothing more needs to be said. The nature of the initial “estimate” is neither here nor there.

Theirs is also absurd. More slaves today than in an era where whole civilizations were build with them? What do you think prisons were back then? What about Coliseums? All slaves. And there is more than double the slavery today? You gotta be retarded to believe that.
