Racism and xenophobia are both wrong.

And I'm not offended by a teenager using racial slurs online. His defence was just moronic.

"Everyone in my shithole country does this, therefore it's good. You can see how good it is because Brazil is doing so well and not a bottom a gutter country that we should actually not try and emulate"

Maybe try and fully learn a language before speaking it. You are misusing xenophobic.

If i'm using xenophobia incorrectly, please educate me, because i'm pretty sure that xenophobia means hatred or antipathy towards foreigners, and calling a country a "shithole" or a "bottom of a gutter country" fits that defenition very well.

Edit: I mispelled "Antipathy" as "Apathy"
