    many of these laborers are undocumented immigrants and severely exploited. agriculture is a very important factor in any revolution and organizing with farm laborers should be more emphasized among communists

      emphasis on "laborer." organizing with farm owners will get us nowhere, they are almost all reactionary and most of them are very exploitative, even if they only hire a few laborers

        Like you said, they are the modern day kulaks. The revolutionary rural class is always the peasant, the migrating seasonal worker, the plantation slave, the one who does the back-breaking labor on the field, not the agri-entrepreneur who has others extract the wealth of the land for him.

        We all know which class the Dutch farmers protesting rn belong to. The ones referenced by the nazbolette in the OP. These modern day kulaks are the ones who have successfully lobbied until they had been allowed for decades to pollute Dutch drinking water with absurd amounts of pig poop to yield higher profits, in total defiance of water protection laws upheld literally everywhere else in the EU, and who are throwing a tantrum now because their business model that relies on systematic destruction of a vital public good is about to get outlawed.
