At least Chavez realized that importing or allowing illegal immigrant workers in the US threatened farm worker job security. It made it easier to break a strike by replace striking workers. Seemed more about the cause than culture.

What does everyone expect? A bust of Jerry Falwell Sr or David Duke?
Not white? Then what race was he?

This post of yours was ultimately damning of you.


Caesar Chavez was born in Arizona. Now, I had to check to make sure I was right but, sure enough, Arizona is in fact part of the United States of America (I KNOW, right? Next thing they'll tell us is that New Mexico is part of the US!)

It's blatantly obviously why you decided to jump on this instead of checking the actual internet for facts. But, at least we don't have to wonder anymore. You have put your biases right out there on front street.

Hell no, it's fake. He's urinating on the memory of Chavez, and using the man as a prop. In regards to immigration, Chavez stood for everything Biden opposes.

It's sick and demented, and the Biden supporters don't give a damn how fake and disingenuous Biden is.
