Everybody is xenophobic to an extent.

America is still mostly xenophobic and racist. That's the nature of America, I think.

Whatever the evolutionary basis of religion, the xenophobia it now generates is clearly maladaptive.

Xenophobia is dangerous, but patriotism is a good thing.

Xenophobia manifests itself especially against civilizations and cultures that are weak because they lack economic resources, means of subsistence or land. So nomadic people are the first targets of this kind of aggression.

I came from a lot of intolerance and prejudice, which aren't necessarily healthy to evolve as a human.

We've had characters like Trump in American politics forever, characters who trade on xenophobia.

Americans are xenophobic, they will believe their own people rather than the adversary, even a friendly enemy voice.

These false barriers that we've erected of space and race, all these illusions that we've allowed to infect us like toxins, we've got to rid ourselves of that. We are a better nation when we are ultimately united in a common purpose and a common cause.

Ironically, xenophobic nationalists are utilizing the benefits of globalization.
