Because they did. Those who have argued against subjugation in any form out loud have always been in the minority. Silent condoning is still condoning. For example, did the people rise up protesting en masse when their fellow countrymen were busily importing slaves from Africa or subjugating South- or North-American Indians? Did most of the people in those times condemn it as wrong? No, very few of them did. Most just accepted it. Many condoned it actively.
