  • I get your point, but I think the image you have in your head of rustic countryside life, hard work and an honest living isn’t the reality these child slaves are part of.

    Seems a bit less terrible when you inherit the farm at some point, for one. Second, one would assume that parents would take steps to prioritize their child’s health and safety and wow do they not do that on industrial farms. And third, can’t be an honest living if you’re not actually being paid, you know, a living.

    I don’t think both sides are experiencing cognitive dissonance. In practice, they both appear to be working against the interests of the working class.
