First, we should define "Christian Persecution". What is happening in the United States, Canada, and Europe, where Christians do not get their way politically in every case, e.g. abortion is legal, divorce is legal, more people are leaving Christianity, etc. is NOT persecution. Persecution is when the lives or livelihoods of people are severely threatened or such people face legal hardships because they are Christians. There is persecution of Christians in North Korea, persecution specifically of Catholics in China, and persecution of Christians in general throughout the Islamic World, but especially in Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.
P.S. It is not happening "worldwide".
Religious persecution has been there for ages.Catholics were the first religious order who started persecution from the renaisance time.The catholic church was all powerful and started persecuting groups splitting away.Even before that crusades were undertaken to suppress other religious denomination.The same trend set in the early years still persists.
People get persecuted because they are demonized and hated.
Persecution of Christians, Historically and in the common era.
Are Jews in fact persecuted today? If so, where?
Their persecutors might think their beliefs are contradictory to their own, and try to convert or eliminate them
People are persecuted because of religion still to this day.
Most of the time, in civilized countries at least, Christians aren't persecuted for their religion.
When a gunman comes into a synagogue and starts shooting at everyone there, that seems to me to be a fair example of discrimination. The fact that this has happened in several synagogues over the past few years, forcing synagogues around the world to hire security guards and take other defensive measures seems evidence of the impact of that persecution. Alt-right demonstrators chanting "Jews will not replace us" while groups on the progressive left exclude Jews because of the taint of Zionism both make Jews feel just a bit embattled.
The Holocaust, Russian persecution of Jews, ect. search "Religious persecution" in google or yahoo and you'll get many results :)

Some argue that the illegality of same-sex marriage is a form of persecution (the main argument being that it is an infringement of their human rights and is a legal issue not a religious one)

People migrate to a new location because of generally two types of reasons: there is something wrong with the place where they presently are, and there is some opportunity in the place where they are going. Natural disasters and religious persecution are important examples of the first factor, something wrong with a place where people are, which motivates them to leave.
There are millions of examples of hyperbole. You could say that milk costs about a thousand dollars today for example.
