Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

This is a good post, also it makes me think of how often food becomes some sort of cultural talking point too. Conservatives talk about being shamed for eating burgers, the youth is poor because of avocado toast.
I think one of the biggest things to encourage better treatment for immigrants in the US is just a reminder that the US agricultural system would collapse if we suddenly deported all undocumented immigrants. Even the most rabid conservative has to admit he would pay more for food if he kicked out the people who bring it to him.
I'd love to see some suburban white truck chud spend half a day picking asparagus without his spine breaking in half.
God help us all if the stinky pee grass wasn't available year round though.
