Thanks for reminding me these garbage takes aren't exclusive to the us, and sometimes you Europeans are even crazier with your xenophobia.
Unfortunately xenophobia is alive and well also in Europe. It tends to be more insidious and subtle, but it is very much there.
currently, I believe India takes the cake on that particular front, at least prime minister Modi does. For example, the ruling part is making all schools, public & private, remove references to evolution and the periodic table of the elements from grade 10 science curriculum as it challenges Hindu Nationalist ideas of Indians being the first peoples, and the greatest scientists.
