We live in an interconnected world. As an American, I’d like to know some ways that I could purchase goods, in solidarity with our brothers and sisters in Canada and Mexico, and still avoid the tariffs.

      Actually the preferred term is illegal aliens. I omit the latter because calling a human being an alien is the actual dehumanising part. Spare me the insipid fuckin moralisation.

        I think “illegals” is just as dehumanising as “illegal aliens”. And what the government uses is kind of irrelevant to that, governments have a long history of labelling marginalised groups with dehumanising terms.

        I think “undocumented migrants” or “unofficial migrants” or “people without residency” etc would be better.
