> And luxury belief and illegal alien aren't euphemisms, they are specific terms with a set meaning. Illegal alien is a technical legal term with a precise mean

  > Undocumented or unauthorized alien/immigrant is a technical legal term, "illegal alien" is loaded language used for propaganda. You'd best tell your country that their main legal document contains "loaded language used for propaganda". Title 8 of the US Code contains multiple references to illegal aliens; just as one example, 8 USC § 1366 requires the Attorney General to report annually on how many "illegal aliens" are in US prisons: https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/8/1366 https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/8/1366 A person can also be an "alien terrorist" (8 USC § 1531), a "criminal alien" (8 USC § 1231) and an "illegal entrant" (8 USC § 1182). Your government is free to stop using these terms and has not done so. It has repealed, replaced, moved sections of Title 8 before, and will keep doing that. The current law is defined using the term "illegal alien" in several places. Also, the Democrats attempted to introduce a bill to change government terminology, that bill did not go forward: https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/house-bill/3776 https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/house-bill/3776 - as they are currently in control of the executive, they can use whatever terminology they like, but they also can't bind their opponent's terminology should they get back into power.
