Slavery in tomato fields: "It is not an assumption It is a fact."

[Winehole23]

where did you develop such powerful language? I highly admire the way you put things

Oh please. Anyone who practiced long enough would do as well. You flatter my frivolity, sir or madam.

cheers!

a real pro could have spun this tomato yarn into something related to bloody marys.

just kidding.

I read too much as a child and never gave up the habit. It was a good way of getting people to leave me alone. I'm ambivalent about it for that reason now.

Also, it can be tricky getting just the right handle on WC. It's a chore unpacking what he really means sometimes. I'm sure the unpacking can be a chore too; it's a little weird to collect an aficionado for my efforts. Weird, but ok.

Thanks for the H/T, sook.

Yea well the art of persuasion and formulating your argument has a lot to do with how you put it into words. Alot of people talk out of their ass and use big words but few are as adept as you. You owned me pretty bad when i was debating you over something i can't remember and i didn't bother replying

Eh, c'est la guerre. You lived.

As I recall, it was related to the Gaza invasion and you did reply, admitting your PFA. I haven't forgotten that, yet.

You seem to have suppressed the memory, but that isn't so shocking. It wasn't exactly highlight reel type material.

I don't believe all the article. If the stated facts are substantiated, the grower would be in jail! I didn't see that mentioned anywhere.

People lie to the press all the time, and the press makes such things up as well.

Have any evidence of wrong doing, or do you believe everything you read in the internet?

WC won't believe it until you bring him the person enslaving the workers, the workers themselves, and a 1 day pass to see the workers pulling the tomatos and then being beaten.

WC's evidence of proof reminds me of Chappelle's evidence of proof for R. Kelly...
