Liberals are convinced they're participating in some grand civil discourse, and not that they're being constantly strung along by the dumbest reactionaries in history.

You also have people who support migrant workers as a solution to letting fruit die on the vine, instead of you know, forcing the agribusiness to pay fruit pickers more. Same with H1Bs.

CA agriculture is approaching $16/hr and sometimes includes room and board

http://www.latimes.com/projects/la-fi-farms-immigration/


there's still a labor shortage (nobody wants to live in the middle of nowhere) that is forcing farmers into automation sooner rather than later

turns out that when you liberalize labor on a macro scale, it creates negative pressure in some areas and positive pressure in others

perhaps feudalism is the answer after all . . .

Basically watched the whole thing:

"Over the past few weeks we've seen multiple protests break out of the U.S. but this particular one caught my eye. Here's a video of Fox News claiming that anarchists were attacking a protest as they injured six protesters and thus 13 anarchists were arrested. See that video? So another peaceful protest interrupted by violence.* The question is who are these black clad group fighting the alt right? Oh 'Antifa", cool name. The thing is what are they about? The problem with antifa is that they have no clear defined leadership. Here's a video of one guy who says antifa is about beating up nazis? See he's cool. However, look at this video of antifa members lighting a car on fire and breaking the window of a starbucks? There are these types who just want to riot. So really you have two types of antifa members, the good ones who fight facists and the bad ones who just want to riot."

I don't understand the ridicule. Kamala Harris is an African American, a woman one at that. She stated that she was for universal healthcare before during Q and As and no one believed that she was for a single payer plan. Now that she finally cosponsored a bill by Bernie Sanders ( aka the most popular WASP in politics) only then people will take her seriously on single payer? Looks fishy and is just filled with racial undertones.

I think many leftists who were teens or college-aged during the Daily Show's heyday misremember it as being more progressive than it actually was, when in reality its progressiveness was mostly limited to just laying sweet burns on Republicans. Like, they watched it at a time when they were liberal themselves and came away with a more positive general impression as a result.

Like this:

I think The Daily Show is a better comedy show now than it was with Jon but it's also a worse show for painting the town red with the blood of capitalists

I'm pretty sure the Daily Show, even under Jon Stewart, was never like this. It would sometimes call out conservatives who were actively malicious and stuff, but it certainly won't anything one could call leftist.
