I posted about Aegis's myriad conceptual-level problems for months + stopped posting because it was gay and bad.

I never imagined just how bad it was.

The users here generally suck + the site is full of extremely mentally ill lobotomites.

I'm just taking a victory lap + uninstalling again.

Cya.

No, I'm not following what you're posting because you are virtually incoherent. I have no idea who you are.

I was referencing the Vaseline enthusiast's posts, but carry on with the "brown people come here to take menial jobs" trope.

Not following. I'm against harm reduction and I don't support Biden. Genuinely confused.

Yeah, I know a few that do DoorDash/Uber/whatever because it's apparently really easy to fake the documentation or whatever.

Surely there has to be a better way that feels less..exploitive though? Right?

...but isn't this just accepting that they are destined to be part of the reserve army of labor and forced to work/ at the margins/ be exploited forever?

Yes, it might be a drop in the bucket, but it's a couple million people's lives. What's the solution? Or is your contention there is no problem?

I've said that arguing against borders all together is a more coherent leftist stance than allowing some number of millions of "legal" migrants across that border.

Surly you can see that something in the system has to give to cause Capital to seize up? It isn't politicians doing labor reforms.

Tiny issue how? Like, no one cares or the number of crossings are exaggerated or the impact of it is overblown? All of the above?

you guys literally trip over yourself to argue against things I've never said. It's absolutely NOT possible that someone have a SLIGHTLY different perspective than you and be arguing it in good faith, it MUST be that they are a racist nazi bigot and are just running some sort of elaborate troll.

I never claimed they take jobs - I've actually posted that I think Americans would do these jobs if they were paid a livable wage.

I have said that they depress the value of labor, which is true of anything in which there an increasing supply of.

Can you stick to what I've actually said please?

it COULD be a call for revolution (with violence if necessary) because voting isn't working, or it COULD be an obscure reference to killing minorities even though it's vague and doesn't feature any minorities or context about specific people BUT you do you.

If you say it enough, it might come true, or you'll convince 2-3 more morons to join your reply-guy brigade.

Only when there are like 8 of his desperate replies in a chain.

What can I say, after all these years online and I still can't look away.

I don't know, ask your mother, the personal caregiver of Caesar Chavez since she is the expert LMAO

I have you muted, so I don't get notified of your posts, but thanks for bringing this to my attention.

Crap. I can't click around on the tweet after I googled it (no twitter account) but I'll take your word for it. I'm deleting it.

That labor costs more when it becomes more scarce. That's why companies offshore and support illegal immigration.

This isn't that difficult. I want to disrupt it in multiple places and you seem to think regulations (that never seem to happen) are just going to magically fix it.

And now you've made it to the middle class in America and all you want is to maintain your petty bourgeoisie status and aren't going to do shit to organize here or there. Great. Meanwhile, Capital has gotten another couple decades of exploitable, desperate worker and nothing's changed.

His point about the Irish was also not that they should just move to London. I don't understand why this is so outlandish to you. Leaving your country does nothing to help your country + makes it worse for those that stay.

Marx said to two of his counterparts in the US that the best thing they could do was support other international labor movements. He didn't say they should work to open the border and encourage them to move to America.

Only heard like one compelling argument against it, everything else has been an emotional appeal or a moral/culture war argument, which goes nowhere.

Your mother carrying Chavez on stage doesn't mean you know shit about piss and that sort of "do you know who my mother is?" reeks of a desperate liberal expert status you have no zero qualifications to seek.

You admit labor unions - the UFW in particular - were against illegal migration buuuut ???

Monthly Review | Disposable Workers: Today’s Reserve Army of Labor These are difficult times for workers. In the wealthy countries of capitalism’s center, labor is struggling to maintain existing wages and benefits against a combined assault by corporations and…

"The overall goal of capital’s new course is enhanced profitability through greater flexibility on all frontsβ€”to hire and fire workers, obtain low-cost labor, decrease worker and citizen benefits, invest and market abroad, repatriate profits, and gain access to needed raw materials."

It doesn't. That's the "labor reforms" part.
