I was reading a discussion on a forum and a libertarian made this statement about the living conditions of slaves and I want to know is this statement true:

"Abolitionist missionaries to Europe were told to avoid talking about the living conditions of slaves, because they were much better than the living conditions of European peasants, particularly in Ireland and Scotland, but also in much of continental Europe. "

I would like people's thoughts on this statement since people on this forum are more educated about this issue better than me.
