What's worse is that people often confuse immigration with refugees.

One is looking for a new life while the other is fleeing for their life.

I think it's better to focus on how "you can just leave" is a very embarrassingly terrible argument.

It's the argument of a bad person. Behaving that way is not acceptable as adults.

People know they "Can" leave, but if they are trying to stay and enact meaningful change they believe in, telling them they "can leave" is just bragging you are a bad, weak, unpatriotic, person.

Try phrasing it this way, "if I don't like the direction something I love is going in - I just abandon it"

Could be worse, I once had an encounter with a Brexiter post the 2016 Referendum who came out with the stunningly intelligent line

"Well if you love the EU so much you should just go live there!

My reply "The UK has been in the EU for 40 years, if you hated it so much why didn't you emigrate years ago?"

Still waiting for an answer.
