Rep. Jasmine Crockett suggests the United States needs illegal immigrants because 'we done picking cotton'

[seafoam1 2,859]

 When has she or anyone she knows ever " picked cotton"? 

What a focking clown.

Crockett's comments are the latest in a spate of controversial remarks that have spurred a censure resolution against her in the House

Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, a member of the far-left group of progressive lawmakers known as "the Squad," told congregants at a historically Black church that America needs robust immigration because "we done picking cotton."

So she wants illegals to be what blacks were in the 1860s here in the US and that brings you joy. Cool.

That hurts my head. Can we just export these people? For free. Other countries pay nothing to get them.  I'll pay her plane fare. Let's all pitch in.

What did she say that was racist? She said we need immigrants to perform manual labor  jobs because the people that previously performed those jobs, like black people, are advancing in our society. Years from now the people coming in now will be advancing as well, and we’ll need new people for manual labor. That’s the way it’s supposed to work. Only it makes some white people uncomfortable: a changing diverse society. A lot of folks fear this; it’s part of the reason Trump was elected. They would prefer to slow down or stop immigration, keep minorities in their place. They hate diversity. 
Jasmine gets it. And she speaks her mind and doesn’t take any sh!t. And there’s nothing racist about her.

Exactly, Like the MAGA crowd will do now the jobs of migrant workers and picking crops if there aren't enough undocumented workers to do it after all the Trump deportations.

No one here could possibly explain her racism in a way you would understand so it's not worth even trying.

[jbycho 713]

She said "we". When was it she was picking cotton? 

[Gepetto 1,328]

I guess this is a good of chance as any to post this movie scene.  

 

[jbycho 713]

She wants illegals in this country because "she's done pickin cotton."  

If you don't vote for me, you ain't black.

[Engorgeous George 2,236]

I guess she is unfamiliar with the cotton gin,

 

I'm guessing, like kamala, she's a vodka gal and does not touch gin.

This is a strange comment. The cotton gin is what created the mass number of black slaves picking cotton, which is what she is referring to. The cotton gin is a warning sign from history that not all technological advancement is benign; it caused tremendous human misery.

This is how people like Hitler came to power.

You're either just really dumb or being willfully ignorant. In any event, if someone has to explain it to you then you're already hopeless.

Lol you’ll have to show me the connection between what I wrote and Hitler. Because yeah I guess I’m too dumb to see it. Or something like that. Certainly there is dumbness in this conversation somewhere…

The connection is the willful or deliberate ignorance on your part of bad people. You're so willing to not see the racism.

She is an out and out racist. That's not even debatable.

Because that was the beginning of conception of machines to do slave labor.  It lead rapidly to better seperation machines, but also to mechanical harvesters.  Inteerestingly i did see some people in a harvested cotton field hand picking missed bols just two years ago.

But it also led to an explosion of slavery. It actually created the agricultural system of slavery that the South fought so hard to maintain.

Ah, the old “not even debatable” line. Guess what? I refute you. I don’t think she’s a racist at all, and I’m willing to debate you.

So slavery was from 1794 through 1864.  That is a pretty short period.  I thought it flourished for a hundred years before that and more and involved not just cotton but tobacco, row crops, and labor from building railroads, dikes and dams, to mining and forestry.  The explosion after the cotton gin indeed happened, but signaled the beginning of the end and Jasmine certainly knows no one in her family who ever picked cotton.  i know there were several aborted attmpts at developing harvesters in teh 1820's.  The first practicle one was patented in 1850 though there were unpatented ones prior to that.  The first fully mecahnical, gas powered, harvester came about just following WWII.

So when did crockette pick cotton? And why does she now want illegals to pick cotton? 

"we done picking cotton." 

 

 

[Engorgeous George 2,236]

I think they (slaves) were heavily used for sugar cane harvesting and rice cultivation and banana harvesting.  They were then brought from the caribbean to the mainland for cotton harvesting during the three generations or so that practice was at its height.

 

I was fascinated to see hand picking of cotton in machine harvested fields.  I had a very difficult time thinking that could be a productive use of time.

The last Time she  had cotton picked out her vag was years ago and now she wants illegals to do it now. The LBQT’s don’t wanna go down there so she can pay them much less.

Illegals can’t advance they just do slave jobs for cheap wages. How many illegals slaves do you own?

[HellToupee 1,649]

So many people are standing in support of slave labor. How did democrats become so deranged

Just to be clear, you're asking Democrats how they support slave labor?  The Party that literally started a war to keep their slaves?  The party of Jim Crowe?  The party that founded the KKK?  The party that founded planned parenthood to reduce minority populations?

Are you really that surprised?

shes such trash. And so fake. No wonder Tim likes her.

Heck, they have planks in their platform that are designed to literally keep minorities poor just for votes.

The Democrat Party visibly supports minorities (for virtues and votes) but in action they literally hate them.  That's not even debatable at this point.
