A good rule of thumb is to simply stop assuming foreigners are a threat to you in general, but also, following this, step 2 is to be sceptical of any claims about x y or z type of people Coming To Get You somehow. Like, are you *sure* there are commie spies or something besieging your websites? You sound like you’re from the red scare. We have plenty of people who hate you on our own soil they don’t have to be chinese or russian or whatever
I’m personally not scared of foreigners. Xenophobia is extremely useful to the war machine, of which I want no part of. If You, dear self proclaimed leftist or progressive or liberal or something, don’t want to feed the war machine, try being less scared of foreigners. People are all fundamentally the same thing wherever you go. It’s day 1 of world peace classes on my blog today let’s hear it for not being scared of foreigners because everyone is human woohoo
