So culturally relativism basically?

I'm xenophobic by denouncing xenophobia?

Xenophobia is just another cultural value and if I disagree with it them IM the xenophobe?

You equated racism and xenophobia with a lack of desire for immigrants. Those are quite different concepts, even if there is an overlap.

Furthermore, you condemned an entire nation and wished harm upon them on the basis of a perceived breach of your own values, which I might add are not completely clear to me.

It doesn't have much to do with cultural relativism, but with the assumption that you know what's good for Japan better than they do.
