"Why don't you simply leave" is the exact same Individual Responsibility doctrine that Republicans use to justify every single thread they pluck from the social safety net. Casting the people who are hurt most as the ones to blame for their own pain only furthers the Republican project.

"It's your fault for staying" is exactly the same as "it's your fault for getting sick" or "it's your fault for not working more jobs." In a way even worse because of the implied "if you're in a red state, you're one of Them." "Just move" is a right-wing stance.
