Testing me.
The struggle is real.
Say it.
Nice.
No. It’s unfortunate.
“Ni- Oh. Oh no.”
Is it just me, or does something about the use of the word migrant instead of immigrant or refugee kinda dehumanize these people that died?
These people clearly aren’t migrants, that that means they move back and froth from their home country. So why has this word been so heavily used recently?
Migrant to me is the more accurate word.
Migration can be seen from 2 viewpoints, “emigration” and “immigration”. Depending if you are looking from the country of origin or the destination.
However, in this headline neither the origin nor the destination is mentioned, therefore it doesn’t make sense from either point of view. Therefore the viewpoint-agnostic “migrant” makes more sense to me.
We can promote them to “expats.”
TIL it is 3085km to Nice, France.
A lot of migrant boats capsize. Is someone poking holes from below?
Capsize means it flipped over. Holes in the bottom would just make it sink.
