Eh - no. I was a 'brown' person living in the middle east and called an expat.

Expat implies an intent to return or a temporary worker and is a frequently used term in the middle east/asia. E.g https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-12-25/expat-fee...

Not everything has to be viewed from an SJW angle

I never said brown people can't be called expats. Your defensiveness regarding that is more SJW than my original post, which just cited a few articles.
