Ooh maybe you can help me with a word I always am unsure how to spell, you know how when something doesn't bother you, you say you were unfazed by it, how do you spell that word? Unphased?

[–] brown567@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 days ago

Faze means to frighten or cause hesitation, it's Germanic

Phase is Greek in origin =)

Legality is not equivalent to morality. Someone can be in a country illegally even though they should be allowed to be there.

Yep, that quote wants to align morals and laws, allowing foreign people in a legal way too.

Illegal people is just oxymoronic

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

Right? I mean there's a difference between living in a country 'illegally' and just occupying someone's home illegally. I have a gf who's American and I live in Canada. If she just moved in with us and stayed here, she'd be more than welcome in our home and accepted. But according to Canada, she'd be here 'illegally'.

On what grounds is she not allowed to live with us, who do live here legally, who do own a home here. Who are legal citizens? She isn't occupying our house. She isn't invading us. She's just... Living here. It's so fucking stupid.

Given the number of times the, er, woke side of things gets blamed for terminology, I think it communicates the sentiment perfectly. When we try using very specific terms like white privilege or toxic masculinity , a great many people obtusely (intentionally in many cases I think) find those terms confusing or assume they mean something different than they do.

You hear "no one is illegal on stolen land" and you know exactly what they are trying to say. Anything more complicated would be too long or end up trying to be specific in a way that would confuse things, IMO.

[–] saturn57@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

I agree with your point about the other terms, but in this case saying something like "immigration shouldn't have restrictions" is clearer and still concise.

Link for Part 1, pls?

What are laws when they're written by rich genocidal assholes
