WASHINGTON, July 11 (Reuters) - A California farmworker died on Friday from injuries sustained a day earlier when U.S. immigration agents raided a cannabis operation and arrested hundreds of workers, according to a farmworker advocacy group.

Dozens of migrant-rights activists faced off with federal agents in rural Southern California on Thursday. It was the latest escalation of President Donald Trump’s campaign to deport all immigrants in the U.S. illegally.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security said in a statement that approximately 200 people in the country illegally were arrested in the raid, which targeted two locations of the cannabis operation Glass House Farms.

Agents also found 10 migrant minors at the farm, the statement said. The facility is under investigation for child labor violations, said Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Rodney Scott in a post on X.

    I understand your frustration, but us mods are bound by the instance-wide rules and TOS

    Oh, and one of the people your arguing is reporting you as a troll, which you obviously aren’t.

      LOL But you don’t follow them. I reported one person who was clearly breaking the TOS and YOUR rules and you banned me instead for being a “known troll” for speaking about phobias. At least be honest with yourself.

          Yeah, I’m gonna believe that. What rule did I break, then? Or are you just vibe modding? Because I sure as shit am not “trolling” for speaking about things that matter to me that you dislike.

              Are you serious? Did you even look at the time frames? 3 mo ago, 1 year. I’ve been here 2 years. I hope you realize most of those times were not deserved, and people were power tripping and assuming shit, just like you did by slapping troll on everything you dislike. Mods like you are the problem on this site, who then turn around and play saints.

                Sorry for the delay in response.

                I was taking the time to do something I rarely have time to do: actually look at your profile.

                I will say this, I was wrong.

                Mods didn’t always have time to deep dive, and we’re human. Sorry for the error.

                  Thank you, that’s rare to see and it means a lot. I sincerely don’t participate in bad faith. I’m making an effort to do better.

      Yeah I figure almost everything I say is reported. Thanks for not modding without checking context.

      Lobby to change the TOS. No one is taking down lemmy servers. At least not yet—which could happen if things get worse.

        Unfortunately .world is in a country with strict laws against that sort of thing, so they are at very real risk of getting shut down if they change their rules against calling for violence.
