This is really happening to people and has really happened to people. Sitting in an arm chair and thinking "What if it happened here, where people are mostly white and English speaking though" is gross, shallow and voyeuristic and this adds nothing to it, nothing. The poetry of it is obscene.

To apply someone else's very real suffering to yourself and then make poetry out of it is obscene. If fiction is where the truth is it's because you're supposed to add something, not appropriate, scavenge and cannibalize other people's trauma.
