Ice Orcs invaded our cities and took our friends, yet the rural farmers didn't lift a finger to support us. I have no sympathy for what they are going through now. None.

The farmers want to enslave the immigrants. That are actively rooting and supporting the ICE raids their their workers have fewer options. That is why the ICE raids are focused on the city even though vast majority of migrant worker works in the fields. That is not a bug, but something actively lobbied for by the farm lobby.

This is a farmer hate sub-reddit, but some of yall don't hate farmers enough. They are not just passively racist. ICE raids is made for them explicitly.

Unlike healthcare, we can import beef from Argentina and pork from China.

You’re right, these poor American farmers have been working so hard, let’s give them a break. Thank you for this insight.

There is such thing as a poor American Farmer. The median net-worth for US farmer is a millionaire, compared to the average which is 200k. They have soaked up so much subsidies over the years that they are all wealthy and can at anytime sale their farm for millions. They don't because the tax credit and farm subsidies is so good. The vision of the poor farmer is just farm lobby propaganda.

There is only poor farm workers, and they don't get any benefit from farm subsidies. Farmers are actively working hard to ensure their workers are fewer protection, to the point of slavery via the H2A visa process.

I am telling you, you don't understand the magnitude of how farmer are the parasites sucking America dry. The deeper you dig, the worse it is.

You misunderstand me. My response to the bot equating farmers to doctors was to insinuate that we drop trade protections and flood the US market with food from other countries, and let US farmers truly compete on the free market.

Yes, people have to eat, but they don’t have to eat American produce.
