    Yeah, that’s a bit of a reach - not like immigrants aren’t brutally exploited on vegetable farms either or anything

      I never said they weren’t. But there is an active probe into US companies employing migrant children working illegally in slaughterhouses right now. And the level of mental damage from one is not comparable to the other, looking solely at job duties. Even if they weren’t immigrants, forcing poor people into that kind of work (by giving them no other/better options) is also a form of discrimination that farms out mental health issues to certain populations.
