Being a refugee is a real life-threatening experience that happens to real people in response to real violence. Not when your favorite website closed down your favorite 3rd party app.

It's like saying you were raped when you get killed in fortnight bc some kid 360 no scoped you. It takes away from the experience of real rape victims.

Being a migrant is a real experience that happens to real people in response to real hardship. Not when your favorite website closed down your favorite 3rd party app.

This argument could be made for a lot of of terms. I can't imagine anyone is actually conflating being a Reddit refugee, with being a political refugee.

Where is this coming from? Are you a political refugee? Have any political refugees asked you to pass on their concern? Are you speaking for political refugees without their consent?
