Not a lot of posts, here’s some fluff.

    Can you point to the part where they said Mexicans deserve nothing more than to pick olives in 100deg hear? That’s a very serious accusation.

        What about what they said was a dog whistle? It looked to me like they were acknowledging the reality that a migrant worker, especially if they’re undocumented, doesn’t have certain skills (or the right certification in a skill), or they don’t speak the language, that worker is going to end up in some really hard labor, low paying, low worker protection jobs. They said migrants work incredibly hard doing work the country collapses without, in counter to your meme implying they come here for the welfare benefits that our country sucks at.

        What I did not see was where they said or implied that was what the worker deserved or that it was okay. Only that it’s a reality. Is reality the dog whistle?

        You, on the other hand, posted a meme implying that people come here for welfare handouts and then act like they built the country from scratch. “LiKe mY aNcEsToRs” who stole the country from the people who lived here. THAT sounds like a dog whistle. Only without the usual subtly.

        I think maybe the pot is calling the kettle black and appropriating terms to make itself look innocent.
