-phobia implies irrationalUgh, what do you people consider xenophobic? What does she have to do for it to count for you? Genocide or suggestions of such?

and the other guy who keeps saying "you humans are all racist!"And in ME2 there's this racist Turian vendor in the Citadel that shit talks Shepherd.
The only reason the council even cared about humans enough to intervene was because they realized humans were a major military power capable of pushing back the Turians who were -- thus far -- unmatched in their military prowess. They didn't care when it was human civilians being bombed from orbit.She was "right" insofar the law of averages and she suspecting every alien. Someone is bound to slip up eventually. Like I said, it's like suspecting white men and then going "see that my fears wasn't irrational?" when they catch John Wayne Gacey.
But her comments go beyond politics and infect her perception of her allies and crew members.

wow what absolute bigotsShe doesn't trust the geth or rachni but then again neither does almost anyone else in the setting.
Also requires not actively looking for things to be offended by, which is an even taller order.But that would require actually playing the games and paying attention.
And she lost her squad in the first time the Beth returned in centuries. First contact fuckups run in the family.humanity's first encounter with an alien species was them bombing the shit out of humans with zero warning
ashley williams' grandfather was the general that surrendered at shanxi due to the orbital siege, btw
None of this justifies xenophobia. Your grandparents could've been killed by a group of gays/Jews/Zimbabweans/heterosexuals, but that doesn't justify phobias or any kind.
People started discussing whether she's right or wrong/justified, but my initial point wasn't that at all. You can search Lambach's posts and see he also said she's xenophobic. I also pointed to multiple instances of irrational paranoia or casual species-based derogatory comments.
