When the europeans discovered central- and southern africans, they didn't actually believe that they where humans. And that legitimized, in their perception, the treatment of them as livestock. That perception lasted quite for some time before it became questioned. That eventually sparked the questioning even in america which gave rise to abolitionist movement.

Could you please provide quotes from John Locke indicating that he thought toleration should not be extended to Catholics? (I will ask about atheists later.)

You constantly look like you're telling a dad joke, and you're trying to not laugh at the punchline you know is coming.
