>I don't think if these two were from Asia/Africa they would have been called expats.

And you base that on....? Why do people search for injustice?



Actually most western European countries have 'expat programs' for eastern European countries with job offerings mostly as babysitters/valets/waiters.

They're intended for young people & the stay is between 6 months & 2 years.

In that context 'expats' is used for temporal residence in foreign countries with no intentions to be made permanent. It's mostly intended for young people to travel around, not much for the financial benefit.

So in my understanding it's the intentions which define, not skin color / continents.

PS. The written above is a definition from my personal point of view :)

The left has been teaching people to believe they are victims for more than a decade now. That's why they search for injustice.


If you think the victim mentality is limited to the left, you've obviously not being paying attention to the alt right or Christian conservatives.


The true alt-right is tiny. Well, since alt-right has been defined to include white supremacy, anyway.

The left is huge.
