She's right, machines pick cotton. The cotton gin replaced slave labor because of how efficient it was. Not all agriculture has been revolutionized like this.

Of all the silly shit to have your panties in a twist about, y'all. You got literal nazis sending people to concentration camps talking about how they're going to force "mentally ill" people to work farms, and you want to imagine up some bullshit to be mad at one of the few democrats that's been effective lol touch grass

If machines pick cotton... why do we need migrants? Her conclusion does not follow the antecedent.
