Is there an App that will change "Undocumented" to "Illegal" when reading articles?

Seriously - I'm sick of reading news stories with the term 'Undocumented'. It's a deliberate act to change the nature of the story and brand people who break the laws as non-criminals.

Someone needs to create an app that downloads news stories and replaces the term "Undocumented Immigrant" with "Illegal Alien" ...

Back to my cave ...

Or just using the term “immigrant” as a universal.

"Choice" when they refer to abortion murder. "Equal rights" when they refer to perverts forcing people to bake cakes. "Her" when they mean a sick faggot in a dress pretending to be a woman.

Yes, the left has had a long history of war against the language and war against reality.

Agree to send me 50 bucks via paypal, and I will have you a Chrome extension in the store to do this by Monday.

I am serious.

I’m writing one that’ll change “she” to “he” when MSM is discussing “transgendered” people.

My brain does that automatically without the assistance of any app.

“My brain does that automatically without the assistance of any app.”

Exactly. No difficulty at all.

Akin to reversing anything a lib or the media says in order to evaluate the truth of a situation.

Illegal equals criminal.

1. Find the article.
2. Copy the article.
3. In Word or whatever paste the article.
4. Select all
5. Select Find and Replace.
6. Find = Undocumented.
7. Replace = Illegal.
8. Hit Return and maybe Replace All

You’re welcome.

The problem I notice is that “immigrant” is now used by the left to mean “illegal immigrant,” as though there were no legal immigrants.

Yes there is an app. It’s called an email to the writer with the strong suggestion he/she use correct terminology so as to avoid a reputation for sloppy and dishonest verbage.

Were the Ottaman Turks mere trespassers when they entered Europe in force? John III Sobieski had a different viewpoint.

My brain makes the change automatically. Sounds like yours does too but you focus on the letters instead of the true meaning of them.
