The worst hot take of this nature I've personally heard so far, in Canada: "Fuck man this customer service job pays me peanuts when I'm busting my ass! I tell ya, it's those damn Indian immigrants saturating the service industry and driving the wages down!"

Worker saturation does reduce the power of the workers. A small town strike is a huge deal, it can shut the business down with nobody around to easily replace them. As opposed to place they can be easily replaced with low cost workers, the conditions will slowly move towards slavery with every replacement.

Aren't most of the Indian customer service workers in India though? Nothing to do with immigration
