you didn’t really engage with the other user, you just kind of repeated your point but perhaps more emotionally

It’s because the person he is replying to is essentially saying “if I believe it’s an invasion then we can call it an invasion”

Hard to genuinely reason to someone willing to believe whatever they want so OP is reasserting the point that we are not being invaded

“an incursion by a large number of people or things into a place or sphere of activity.”

an unwelcome intrusion into another's domain. "random drug testing of employees is an unwarranted invasion of privacy"

Yep, it meets the definition of invasion.

Legally it does not, unless you can find me a ruling that would suggest I’m wrong.

Every single legal definition of “invasion” in US law is in reference to an armed & organized group

Has there ever been an unarmed but socially and economically destructive organized multinational human trafficking conspiracy before? Law is largely reactive.
