Settlers connotate hands-on rawdogging early bloody landholding and industrial capital and its allies, that seeks to ethnically cleanse, if not genocide an indigenous area and settle its new superstructure there… they’re much direct and reactionary as is…
I mean I guess, but expats strike me more as part of a sterile Finance capital, PMC and its allies around the world, who are essentially little Eichmanns that stay in one country and move to another for business and so on so forth, keeping their hands and image ‘clean’, ‘diverse’, et ‘diplomatic’… they aren’t really Trumpists, who want to defend to hell their settler-colonial land…
They may not ethnically cleanse, if not genocide native populations but they do the paperwork of approving company policy to ruin them into the ground…
They’re compradors?
Plenty of them are just Settlers.
