Absolute surprised this story was published by Yahoo. Any mention of this in the media at large is grounds for racism complaints and claims of white nationalism. It’s incredible that facts staring people in the face (you don’t have to be an economist to understand that what the communists did in 2000 was a disaster) is tantamount to “spreading racist thought.” Even AOC could have seen this. If I were these white farmers I’d tell them to eat not one, not two but three bags of shit. Unfortunately, most of these farms had been in these people’s families for generations and it’s not so easy to just walk away from the land that you love and have put so much pain, effort and life into.
