[QUOTE="p1ngpong, post: 3185652, member: 123159"] Xenophobia is not a new thing, especially when a nation or group feels threatened or are under attack from an outside element. Going back thousands of years people have always reverted back to an "Us vs them" mentality in these situations as a survival mechanism, whereby the paint everything as black and white, good and bad. There is less of an excuse for that now as there is a large intermix between cultures in general, and the information that you can access in order to educate yourself on these foreign cultures is more easy to access now than ever before. Unfortunately there are still a lot of people in the world who don't want to access this information, are too lazy to do so, or if they do they pick and chose what they learn in order to enforce the stereotypes they want to hold. Having a media that tends to focus on the sensationalist attention grabbing headlines in most countries doesn't help things either. Scaremongering sells and certain elements that control media outlets or have the power to influence them benefit greatly from drumming up perceived threats from distant intangible forces. And this problem is reflected across the board, whether you are in the US, UK, Iran or anywhere else. For the most part people worldwide are groomed as to what prejudices they are expected to hold at any given period of time. And whats sad is that in general they don't even realise this. [/QUOTE]
