    The Nationalism usually ends when they want cheap labor. Then it’s okay for foreigners to come in, unless they advance their status through hard work economically and socially

      That’s actually pretty unusual in the big picture. I’m guessing you’re North American, maybe European? In east Asia, no such thing ever happened, and even in the West, historically (pre-WWII) immigration and free markets were championed by the liberal parties. Ditto from what I know of conservatism in other regions.

      In that case they wouldn’t be complaining, most of the international students are in grad school aka some of the cheapest labor available lol.

        Yes, but you assume they know literally anything about the academic system at all. They think anybody who works at a university is an “elite”, and is therefore somehow being treated better than them.
