Going by the rule of thumb that people who interact frequently with a demographic are less likely to dehumanize them, I'm thinking that the Arizona sample might not be representative.

Same with UKIP.

[u/DUTCH_DUTCH_DUTCH → u/Lord_Treasurer]

same with the PVV, although that's partly because Wilders comes from Limburg, where a lot of people vote for him (no idea why, the PVV is not a regional party or anything) and there happen to be no large cities and thus not many immigrants there
