Should every person consider people with the same citizenship as “their people” and treat them better than others? Is it really uncivilized and inhumane to not follow that norm?
I think you're reading tribalism into an issue of logistics.
There are no logistics issues with residents and tourists.
Bloody hell man, you really do like to read between imaginary lines.
I think you have imagined those imaginary lines. I have no idea what you mean.
In every comment you made in the thread, you seem to have taken minor issues of phrasing and used them to wildly misinterpret comments in the least charitable way imaginable.

> Who are “your people”?

This seemed (to me at least, but it wasn't entirely clear) to be reading a comment to be race based when it obviously wasn't.

> Should every person consider people with the same citizenship as “their people” and treat them better than others? Is it really uncivilized and inhumane to not follow that norm?

Really? This just completely misinterprets the comment it replied to.

> There are no logistics issues with residents and tourists.

This assumes that a system aiming to provide universal healthcare to the citizens of a nation will refuse to help non-citizens within the nation.
