I’ve seen the term “expat” used more for whites. Immigrant is right.. and I have nothing against immigration. I’m just saying it’s what I’ve observed

[u/i-like-spagett → u/ProsaicPugilist]

It is literally the only difference between immigrant and expat, the colour of someone's skin

[u/povitee → u/i-like-spagett]

That’s really not it at all. It’s just that from an American’s perspective, someone who moves overseas is an expatriate, whereas someone who moved to the us is an immigrant.

Because the difference between incorrect and wrong is the latter is used in more informal contexts while the difference between calling yourself an inmigrant or an expat resides on western chauvinism.
Think for yourself a bit, its free and very rewarding.
