    Not intrinsically, but pretty commonly it is driven by bigotry over culture, religion or skin colour.

    You know all the people up in arms over the wave of Ukrainian refugees? Oh wait, there’s nothing of the sort? Well, there you go.

        Where, and to what degree relative to Arabs or Latin Americans or whatever?

        Like sure, you can find someone who said it was bad somewhere, but even in places like Romania or Poland they were never the main target of the xenophobic rage.

          I live in SC. There was a big uproar about it and an even bigger one that the news shrugged its shoulders and went “eh, not really news worth.”

            Well, that’s the where. How big, relative to dissatisfaction over Latin Americans?

            I’m pretty sure it’s negligible by comparison. Because I know America.

          Thats because the media didnt try to cause mass hysteria. Man you guys are so easily manipulated by media i think we should force psychological classes so you can see the warning signs of manipulation

          Edit: you are the easiest people to manipulate and its already obvious.
