A while ago I did a short thread on "expats", "economic migrants" and immigration:
https://mstdn.social/@rysiek/109931921984437190
I said:

The problem for Musk with hiring Americans isn't that they're under-qualified, it's that they cannot be easily exploited.

  And don't get me started on "economic migrants" BS! "Economic migrant" is the correct term for an "expat". I am an economic migrant, born in Poland, living in Iceland, and proud of it. I hate the term "expat" with a passion of a thousand suns. I find it racist, used to artificially differentiate between rich, predominantly white, Northern-born people moving freely and comfortably wherever they want; and destitute, predominantly BIPOC people forced to risk their lives to secure livelihood. 🧵
