There's this thing called "friend-enemy distinction" that basically every living species exercises in order to survive and thrive. In the case for the human species, specialised behaviour has developed in the memetic sense where you can shame your enemy for using this basic life sustaining function, exploiting that human beings are cooperative and socially conscious animals. You can basically make someone keel over and die out of their own volition as you stomp their head in because you forced their instinct to comply with social shaming misfire. The label of xenophobia funnily enough is mostly used to corrode and subvert the very genetic conditioning of our species that actually permits us to be kind to a stranger in the first place, as in this scenario those who are too sincerely socially conscious are selected to die off and those who are ready to exploit any and all good will will thrive.
