> if you're worried...

> you likely feel...

Thank you for the advice, but I don't worry about that, and I do not have that feeling at all. I don't experience any conflation with xenophobes in my real life. I find them repugnant, and vote against them and speak against them, except where we incidentally align. I am 90% liberal leaning (US liberal).

The fact of experiencing negative things that happen to be related to immigration (or employment/contracting) policy does not make you a xenophobe, generally speaking. Cultures can sometimes clash and economics have concrete effects on the American Dream - it's an unfortunate reality, but it is reality.



Then why were you complaining about people being sorted into groups and distinguishing yourself from the alt-right?

I find them repugnant, and vote against them and speak against them, except where we incidentally align.

> Cultures can sometimes clash

I wanna tug on that little nugget so badly. Please tell us more I'm sure it would dispel any notion of xenophobia...
