Are Redditors overreacting about the US government?

I understand I come from a place of privilege when I ask this but I don't really see this kind of "should I evacuate the US" type discussion anywhere but Reddit. Are peoples' lives really being affected that much? I could defiitely see it for undocumented immigrants, but what exactly has changed, day to day, for trans people etc? Isn't wanting to leave the country a little extreme? I see people calling themselves refugees... do they not have food, clothing, shelter? Isn't refugee a bit extreme considering what people in war-torn countries and shit actually deal with in their lives and literally need to escape?
