"Wants to pick apples." Come the fuck on. I agree with the point that billionaires are the true threat, but treating migrant labor like it's fulfilling their life dreams is racist and gross. They undoubtedly want many things, but they're desperate and they're being exploited. Let's not insult them further by pretending they want to be treated that way.
This is not at all what the original post is saying.
Sure it is. They could've said "wants to make a living" or "is willing to do hard labor", but they didn't. They framed it as just "picking apples", and that it's what the migrant "wants" to do while focusing on the problems that affect them. It might not be what they meant, but it's absolutely what they said.
This is such a ridiculous thing to hallucinate and focus on.
