oh no, you lost access to the people you were viciously exploiting because of your racism?
well boo fucking hoo
Exploiting how? They were paid employees. Employed by idiots, obviously, but that in itself is not exploitative.
This doesn’t feel like a genuine question, because it’s an open secret that a majority of american restaurants, farms, and construction outfits run on migrant labor at below minimum wage. I personally work in construction in Oregon, and I’m well aware of this, even hundreds of miles from a boarder.
I'm not American, so other than random articles I see shared on various social media of questionable reputation, I don't know. So yes, it's a genuine question.
