You just wrote an essay to argue semantics. Why? Maybe "refugee" would be more accurate, but the two are synonymous in the current political discussion. You're creating a conflict here for no reason other than your own enjoyment from arguing. If that's what you want to do, go to twitter.

disagreement != conflict

It's not semantics, I think the social and cultural elements of being an immigrant are interesting. And I found that by talking to people who disagree with me, it improves the chances of learning something new.

Didn't know trying to analyze the things posted here or voicing a different opinion is frowned upon here. How about:

What a boomer, he's so stupid! Fuck Dean Cain!
