Nope. That puts blame on immigrants, which I wholeheartedly disagree with. I solely argue the nuance of having a disproportionate amount of unskilled workers caused by capitalism. If you don't understand that, then you're probably one of those workers.

Holy, straw man argument much? You took one sentence, misinterpreted it, and spiraled it into a complete made-up narrative.

My only point is flooding the market with cheap labor has a ripple effect that brings down wages as a whole, not just for those being exploited. Nothing I said suggests that immigrants are to blame by "taking our jobs".

TFWs aren't the only way immigrants are being exploited, that is short sighted. There's also PGWP propped up by phony trade schools and community colleges. TFWs give capitalists leverage, but it's not the whole problem.

You do realize that these things go hand in hand, no? Capitalists ~~need~~want cheap labor, so they exploit immigrants, in turn driving down wages for everyone.

Edit: I received some criticism as though I'm suggesting "immigrants are taking our jobs" - that's wrong. I'm only saying that capitalists are exploiting a vulnerable population, which in turn creates more wage stagnation as the market is flooded with cheap labour.

I'm very pro-immigration, but I try to understand the nuance it has on the job market.~~___~~

The Reddit Boost app does this. I wonder if that data is available through the Lemmy API

I'm pretty sure it's intentional so you have to visit their site. So probably nothing Boost can do

No no, we're not doing this. We're not pretending Vista wasn't absolute dog shit.
