    The point of the original reply was to point out that farmers markets and their pricing aren’t always the ethical choice, and its dependent on where you live. You’re saying “no, it always is, because I live in a farm community and it is here.”

      Two local people shared different local experiences and I’m not sure why you think either is more valid than the other.

        Because one guy is pointing out that farmers markets arent ethical everywhere and the other guy is trying to invalidate that.

          There are some places where they are not ethical.

          There are some places where they are.

          They’re both actually saying the same thing. I don’t understand how two people saying the same thing could possibly be invalidating each other.

          …can you point to where the guy you replied to originally said that? Because that didn’t happen, either.

        The other person started with “my local” you started with stating you live in farm country and most do this. Implying you are correcting the other person to state what is the norm when it’s not. There are even documentaries about the slave labor of immigrants and their children.

        You didn’t directly say it, but your words are implying this is what is normally is.

          I am a different person than that person. Also I disagree with your logic in regards to what they said, because that definitely isn’t what I took away from it

            My bad I misread the name. And that’s fine to disagree, but when I read “I live in farm country and this is what actually happens…” I read that as someone who is trying to come across as a subject matter expert attempting to provide clarity and set an expectation of what is the norm and what isn’t.

            In this case their attempt fails because we know most farms are actually exploiting immigrants. Which is directly contrary to the other person’s statement that most farms just have some seasonal immigrants labor. Something they actually did say.
