The same people who would recommend this are the same exact people who are clutching pearls at other people coming in and taking their jobs, and also the same exact people who are least likely to have immigrants take their jobs. What do they actually want? Nobody fucking knows, not even them

Have you written letters, talked to neighbors, helped any out? Mutual aid, direct action?
