DeSantis signed legislation mandating the use of E-verify systems for employers with 25 or more employers and now latino truckers (who are most likely illegal aliens who are illegally employed in the US) are protesting it and encouraging other truck drivers to protest as well. The amount of people threatened by this mandate should be a signal for how broken and corrupt our economy and country are, but rather it is being pushed as a leftist humanitarian crisis that can be summarized as, "those poor migrants won't be able to be exploited for the cheap labor they provide!"
When I used to live in California, there was a bakery whose employees were largely illegal aliens, and after those illegal aliens were deported, rather than paying better wages to attract new employees, the bakery just decided to close its doors for good. The US has become a country that depends so much on illegal aliens that businesses just can't afford (whether they genuinely can't afford to or they are so awful at managing money that exploiting cheap labor is the only means of keeping their business afloat) to hire actual American citizens.
If any actual attempts at curbing illegal immigration are made, the left makes the same argument every time, "how else will you keep prices cheap," or "who else is going to work these jobs?" If a labor shortage occurs because nobody is willing to work for the pathetic wages offered, then the left takes delight in how "dependent" companies are on exploiting the labor of illegal aliens and tries to argue that it is "good" that illegal aliens are here being exploited. All these people complaining about wanting higher minimum wages and then turning around and arguing that "if we hire actual Americans, then the prices of everything will increase!" What the fuck is this Machiavellian bullshit?
Years ago, I thought they were arguing these points because they thought that they were appealing to the right, but it's pretty clear that they genuinely think worker exploitation is a good thing.
Honestly, I don't expect leftists to have standards. It's just makes me angry that they can do so with such ease and very little push-back. I know it is speaking to the choir here, but the average normie seems unable or unwilling to look at the bigger picture.
Please understand that the left controls ALL of the major institutions; academia, the media and big businesses.
They can push all of their desired narratives with ease and most normies are just gullible retards who follow these narratives.
I understand and fully sympathize with your anger over this situation but for the right to win, we unfortunately are forced to play things much smarter than the left would ever have to. In terms of a video game analogy, the left is playing on very easy difficulty and we are playing on the hardest difficulty setting possible.
We cannot replicate certain tactics the left abuses because we the right don't control any major institution.
For example, we could never run a retard like Fetterman and win a swing state because we don't have every major institution shilling for us. We saw how our Senate candidate Herschel Walker got crushed in GA and he wasn't even fully retarded compared to Fetterman.
We have no choice but to run smart and ruthless conservatives who are excellent at eloquently pushing back against the leftist narratives if we even want a tiny shot at winning.
I think it might be more apt to say that we're in chip range at full screen and the left is zoning us out.
