Azzkkr,To quote a variant on the Might BE Giants tune…
“This is where the party ends
I can't stand here listening to you
And your xenophobic friend
I know politics bore you
But I feel like a hypocrite talking to you
And your xenophobic friend.”Xenophobia [Definition]: "an unreasonable fear of foreigners or strangers or of that which is foreign or strange".[1] While this is the accepted dictionary definition, in more casual contexts today the discriminatory connotation is substantially reduced, and the definition rendered more accurately as a tendency to judge another culture by a single prevailing stereotype, to compare them unfavorably to one's own culture, or simply to attribute unpopular actions or viewpoints of foreigners to the culture of their origin. It comes from the Greek words ξένος (xenos), meaning "stranger," "foreigner" and φόβος (phobos), meaning "fear.”Many social xenophobes pretend they are free of prejudices these days, but they just disguise their prejudices in light phrasing of “preference” –but when it is pervasive and all-encompassing it isn’t preference, its prejudice. Reading Ameri-centric comments on Hulu and elsewhere just makes me appreciate the output of other countries and societies more. See 42 other replies
