If slaves aren't immigrants then what are Dreamers?

Since slaves did not come to the USA of their own free will so it's offensive to call them immigrants and Dreamers did not come to the USA of their own free will then why are Dreamers called immigrants?

That's what I call them but lefties call Dreamers immigrants even though they did not come to the USA of their own free will. Yet lefties are offended that Dr. Carlson called slaves immigrants because they did not come to the USA of their own free will.
This doesn't make sense.

Can you really not make any distinction between slavery and childhood?

Seriously...please tell me you are not comparing children who were brought here by their parents seeking a better life to people who were violently and forcibly relocated here to endure a life of slavery.

It doesn't matter what reason slaves and Dreamers were brought to the USA.
Neither of them came to the USA of their own free will.
So if it is offensive to say that slaves were immigrants simply because they did not come to the USA of their own free will then Dreamers should not be called immigrants for the very same reason that they did not come to the USA of their own free will.

Maybe Dreamers would not have come to the USA if they had a choice.

Still not the same thing. Their parents brought them here in hopes of a better life and future. Slaves were brought here for the sole intention slavery. It's just that simple.

They are the children of illegal immigrants. Same as they always were. I think your conclusion is off if it leads you to conflate the two.

Then it's going to really piss you off that UGA granted him a degree.

Yes, but they did not come to the USA of their own free will.

At least I got to choose to go to UGA and earn a degree of my own free will.

They're minors, so there opinion on the matter only carries as much weight as the parents allowed. Children of immigrants have always been considered immigrants and they always will, your opinion not withstanding. To compare children traveling with their parents to the slave trade is silly.
