Has anyone else noticed the the big media meat puppets are now referring to illegal immigration as "Migration"?
Like they were migratory birds or buffalo.
They are citizens of other countries who broke into our country and should be expelled back to their own country.
If they want to visit, get a visa.
If you want to move here, get in line, pay your fees and wait your turn.
No but I don’t pay attention.
You’re making the right sort of observation regarding how they changed modify manipulate language as a group to manipulate minds.
I will watch for this, I suspect you’re correct.
Note the post directly above this one.
They act like illegals just fall down from the sky and there’s nothing we can do to stop them, so let’s figure out how to deal with this “challenge.” We can BOOT THEM OUT. We can keep them from coming in in the first place!
But...they don’t want to.
Libs want ALL residents of N and S America to be a part of the US. Illegal Immigrants say they are “Americans” too.
Yes they have been changing the language about this. We aren’t supposed to say illegal aliens anymore. That morphed into illegal immigrant, and again morphed into undocumented people.
It’s not migration....it’s an INVASION.
It’s twofold, and the language change was managed by activists in Mexico and the US over 3 decades ago. Some of it is just now being mainstreamed.
The use of the term “migration” has two purposes: 1) To normalize it; Illegal immigration connotes something unusual and bad obviously and 2) make it appear inevitable. In Latin culture, winning a fight is about making things look like you can’t stop it, so surrender / aquiescence is the only option. Trump terrified them because he completely ignored that and pushed back HARD. Force they respect, and he got all their respect.
“Meegration” into Mexico from Guatemala is met with fierce opposition, so there’s nothing “normal” about it in their minds. They’re activists know that but of course they also know the Stupid Gringos don’t get it, and they exploit the spongy types here.
Yes. Migrate refers to groups/herds of plants or animals. Not normally human beings.
Birds migrate south etc...
Human reference is generally economic, e.g. migrant labor.
If each (criminal) illegal alien had a uniform on, we’d look like an occupied country.
As far as I can tell, the language has been the same for the last 20 years or more
They are criminals, they are “dreamers” or “children separated from parents,” or “migrants.”
Liberals are good at changing the mindset of the masses by changing the language. Examples:
bum => homeless;
sex => gender.
There’s one that we need to change:
unborn => preborn.
If the trend setters would just refer to them by their true name, Criminal Invaders, they wouldn't have to waste time keeping up with the latest linguistic gymnastics.
Along with undocumented. Started decades ago in California
It’s ok by me. Just refer to migrations of locusts at the same time...
Just now noticing this?
obama called them undocumented workers. For 8 years. So did all democrats and reporters. But I repeat myself.
Democrats started changing over to just calling them migrants before obama was finally booted out of the white house. (I still wonder if Trump had to fumigate the place)
If you just started noticing this, are you aware...oh never mind I won’t get sarcastic...
We should offer free shipping of “migrants” anywhere in the world that needs cheap labor. Start a “migrant” commodities market and and have daily spot price for them.
