Poll

The most xenophobic country

With racial tensions happening all over the world, it got me thinking... What countries are the most xenophobic and if so why? I'd like this forum to be explore xenophobia and how it differs from country to country. I'd also want a list of
countries you think are the most /least xenophobic countries

Xenophobia means dislike or prejudice against people from different countries

Least: Sweden, although if such high migrant numbers continue this may change, Merkel's Germany.
Most: China, USA (at least among the Christian Right, other groups tend not to be), North Korea (lol), most Islamic theocracies, Japan too.

Britain has also historically been very tolerant, the USA is a nation built upon immigration too so many parts will not be xenophobic.

It's very difficult to tell but my sister is on a volunteer programme in Nigeria and says that the people are very welcoming to foreigners, especially compared to Brits.

I have lived in the Gulf in the Middle East, people over there love foreigners if they come from the "right countries", ie Western and other Arab countries. On the other hand many were awful to people from the "wrong countries", especially South Asian ones.

Edit: I didn't see the poll. Why only those countries?

It's only to see which english speaking country is the most xenophobic.

I could add more if you have suggestions?

Ah, I see. Out of all of those, probably the UK is the least (at least for now). Ireland seems pretty good if we're judging by international standards. For the most I would say Australia.

That's shocking! You'd think they'd be the most xenophobic due to the dictatorship there
>Polling only Western countries
>Most are cucked anyway

Pretty sure you'd find more xenophobia/racism in Zimbabwe, South Africa or Japan.

It would be hard to poll all the 196 countries in the world so I chose these countries instead

I vote Canada, they seem as liberal as the nordic countries
Portugal is very tolerant. Historically the Kings of Portugal have always been tolerant of enrichment.
Least : Russia

So you didn't add any diversity?

Pretty racist to be honest.

I like how you only polled white countries.
