But they aren't illegal_s_ as that renders the phrase a reference to the people themselves and not their actions.
To refer to people as illegal is dehumanizing.

Just because you look down on a group of people doesn’t make the term to describe them dehumanizing.
Just because you can’t differenciate between a term for immigration status and the people with that status doesn’t change what the term means.

Doesn't make it not dehumanizing—since it is—and it certainly doesn't help your arguments it isn't.

I can’t change how you feel about a group nor can I change the definition of a word. It’s a shame you only see a person’s immigration status there’s more to an illegal than how they entered the country.

I don’t look down on the group. I look down on their actions. I don’t like criminal behavior.

You’re not a liberal so that makes sense.
