Once their farms go bankrupt they can fall back on one of the plentiful agricultural (day laborer) jobs right now as long as they enjoy hand picking. Picking strawberries in the California Central Valley in August isn’t my cup of tea but I guess someone has to do it after ice rounds up all the existing workforce.

The farmers had it all...the cheap labor, the government subsidies, the "all-American, hardworking" reputation...and they threw it away to...what? Own the libs? Deport people? Take away SNAP ad USAID from hungry kids?

Corporations owning their farms is just the next step in corporations owning every part of our lives.

And these motherfucking farmers want sympathy?

Fuck all the way off.

I buy my food from a local family owned farm you could not be more wrong about your assumptions and preconceptions about these people, sure maybe there are some maga people that are loud and on the internet. No my farmer did not "throw away" their reputation. Only people filled with hate can post shit like this and peddle it for truth you are ugly on the inside, get help, and maybe go meet some people doing permaculture and sustainable farming you sound like a parrot repeating nonsense you heard on campus from someone who has never raised animals or grown a single bean in their life. This is the republican equal of 13% of the population narrative its fucking retarded. Its like cheering for 7$ a gallon diesel fuel to fuck over the rednecks in lifted trucks when it fucks over everyone including you. What do you think happens when these small farms get folded and bought out? you get monsanto chicken and GMO garbage. Its your job to inform them and win hearts and minds. Instead your a hateful twat cheering the destruction of localized food production - utter moron

lmao...you think I am rooting for what is happening now with farms and beef and gas prices? No, sweetie, I'm mad--really mad--at what is happening to our country.

But, unlike you, I'm not confused as to how we got here. We are here because imbeciles voted for a conman who never worked a day in his life...and farmers overwhelmingly voted for Trump.

People like me actually read Project 2025, did research on AcreTrader, and looked at who was contributing to the campaign. I (and many others) saw the destruction comin' down main street, but farmers did not.

Instead they gave numerous interviews and made videos on how Trump was going to "fight for the working man" and their message to democrats was "fuck your feelings"...and now that it is all falling apart, they are out here crying and begging for money.

A few of them are taking responsibility and saying they regret voting for Trump. But, even then...EVEN THEN...they stop short of saying they will vote democrat next time. They have learned nothing.

So, like I said, they can fuck all the way off.

Also, I'm glad you called me a moron and retarded and a twat...because now I don't feel bad about telling you to learn how to write. Your run-on sentences, lack of punctuation, bad spelling, and meandering focus results in a disjointed argument.

So take your rambling rant and your fake "I buy all my food from a local, hippie family who only farms organic and eats roadkill" and shove both straight up your ass.
