They want migrants to come work the hardest, shittiest jobs but they want them to all live in the crappy housing outside the city limits because the townsfolk don't actually consider immigrants to be human beings. That was the gist of the article as I read it anyway...
Sounds like MAGAts.
A lot of words for modern day slavery supporters.
Yeah the slaveholders loved that argument, great point.
Indentured servitude is still a form of slavery. A form where people signed themselves away to pay off debts at the cost of having little fucking rights. Slaves also didn't just work on cotton plantations, some were servants to nobles too.
Please educate yourself on the different forms of slavery. Not every kind is in bondage with whips picking cotton.
And don’t forget have no rights so that if they step out of line, they get deported. Permanent underclass.
Ask these same people whether these workers deserve protections (e.g. a union), health benefits, or other safety nets and they’ll scream and shout.
Nothings changed since the hawks nest tunnel
Seems like a repeating of history, but for a different race
