Here you go.

I saw the picture of the Florida farmer who stated his crops would have to be plowed under for lack of "migrants" to pick them. At the same time, America has 16 million people out of work. Where are they? Also, are there not a lot of hungry people who would be glad to pick the produce for themselves and others?

Where I lived before moving to Arkansas, we used to pay farmers to pick strawberries in the summer and apples in the orchards every fall. Maybe something for the farmers in Florida, California and Texas to think of when the crops start coming in.

I thought you far left types were in favor of illegal aliens? Don't you hate Americans? Specifically the working class? Aren't they racist, misogynistic, intolerant, etc?

Who are you talking to (or perhaps about)?

I'm certain you're the far left guy who posts here. Don't you hate Americans? Working class deplorables? The rest of the far left certainly does. Have you told them of your sympathy for Trump country?

Honestly you seem to be upset that you do not understand other people. Have you talked to your healthcare provider about this? I am not really qualified to help you.

So what's your opinion on the working class? I'm curious. Is it the same as the rest of the far left? If so it's pretty ugly and you're a pretty awful person.

You do understand that I did not write the letter you are commenting on? I only posted it. Perhaps you want to be asking the fellow who wrote it. His information pops right up on a Google search.

Nah I'm asking you. What's the prevailing view on the far left regarding the American working class? The ones who got ruined by globalism and voted for Trump?

Gosh I am sorry. I have no idea.

Seriously? You really don't know? Or are you just pretending? Here, let me jog your memory:

As a white man, there have been and continue to be countless times in which I have needed to recognize that privilege, white supremacy, homophobia, toxic masculinity, and gender normativity are layered issues. It's easy to call a Nazi a racist because they are so obviously a racist. Not all racists are willing to take up that mantle.
