these are our fellow working class folks

The farm laborers are. But they're the ones getting harassed by our seven layer dip of paramilitary police every time they step off the plantation.

The farm owners are the same petite bourgeois pos shit sacks who gave us hard borders and bloated security state budgets and massive prison populations. They got baited by racist fear mongering - even profited from it on occasion - and only realized they'd get to the end of their rope at the end.

Bust up these farms and return them to the people who do the actual labor. Then I'll start feeling bad about farm owners.
