Jill Filipovic Admits It: Democrats Need Illegal Immigrants As a Permanent Underclass

The prevailing argument from the Left and their opposition to immigration enforcement has been, in a word, racist. It's also an eye-opening glimpse into how they really feel about illegal immigrants.

In short, they want to keep illegals in the country to have low-wage workers to do the less-than-glamorous jobs like picking crops and building houses.

It's the same argument Democrats used when they opposed the abolition of slavery, and it's highly ironic coming from the party that demands a "living wage" for workers (which makes things more expensive for everyone).

If you would like to pay $30 for a pint of strawberries, $700 for someone to clean your one-bedroom apartment, and $100,000 for a new roof on your normal-sized house, then deporting all undocumented people is a policy you should support. https://t.co/l3m7JyCzfP

Filipovic was roasted for this assertion. Who needs someone to clean their one-bedroom apartment?

This is literally the same argument that pro-slavery people made in the mid-1800s, Jill.

You realize that, right? https://t.co/T7eLmoW7mm

She does not realize that, nor does she care.

A couple of thoughts:

1) You can clean your own apartment for free, you lazy turdblossom.
2) It's kind of odd that you see illegals only as existing only to serve your economic interests. You're going back to your mid-1850s roots, it appears.
