> In decent countries (all english speaking ones, western europe) - real (not tiktok “stars” or radicals) average people respect hard working immigrants, especially if they embrace, respect and adapt to the new culture.

Highly doubt that. There is a veneer that breaks easily. Cultural norms forced these kind of respect, not something that comes from within. Western EU is a place where you "must" know language to get that respect. They are the ones who wants "immigrants" out of the country. Look into the votes, look into politics. Do not judge rather look into the sentiment. Live with the young population not the dying ones. See how young people treat you, then you will see the true sentiment. Not the "sentiments" online.

It is not hard to bring it out of the people. You just have to create a gullible and dumb looking character. People will start showing their colors.

Source: Left Western EU (after staying for 1/3rd of a decade) for one of these third world country because I couldn't withstand the fake people there. Yes, academia to everywhere. They exists. I asked most of the immigrants there and they share the same pain as I did. People-are-cold.
