The Real Xenophobic Nations



Few accusations more clearly show the vacuous nature of an individual's intellect than the xenophobia card, which -- as Breitbart reports -- the musician Moby played during a recent epic Twitter meltdown where he complained about "'racist, xenophobic, ignorant' Republicans who 'support war' and 'hate immigrants.'"

At the U.N. Human Rights Council in early 2013, North Korea attacked Canada by saying it had "serious concerns about continued violations of the right to peaceful assembly and freedom of expression, torture and other ill-treatment, racism and xenophobia."

China, of course, also accuses the U.S. of xenophobia, as do these other authoritarian nations.

While some chalk this up to typical left-wing politics, keep in mind that even representatives of the Fraser Institute -- a Canadian right-of-center think tank -- have also been playing the xenophobia card.
