Because usually white westerners tend to not be desperate enough to accept such shitty conditions and pay. Unless you’re polish, in which case British people will complain that not enough are slaving away in the UK. Also watch white lotus season 1.
I expect immigrants are actually doing the laundry via 3 layers of subcontractors for the US Navy too, but it's not like they're stipulating that they have to be specifically Guatemalan or whatever
On ships laundry is done by enlisted men or in self-serve laundry facilities. I'm sure they use the 3-layers of graft off the ships though.
The US Navy is culturally very different from the Royal Navy going way back to its inception.
Correct. Through various means.
On the boats sailors do their own laundry, unless you’re an officer in which case your laundry is done by lower enlisted, and lower enlisted is comprised predominantly by minorities. The laundry folks also hustle on the side and will do your laundry if you pay them.
Pulling into port the Navy usually arranges some sort of pier side laundry service ran by whatever ethnic minority is being oppressed in that particular region.
Stateside there are laundry services on bases, and you pretty much nailed how they work.
Yeah, but this isn't a thing where a job is all brown people because they are who is in need of the work, these folks were specifically recruited BECAUSE they were Chinese and they are now replacing them with Nepalese people. These aren't regular jobs in the Navy.
