Well, yes. Gridania was (and likely still partly is) xenophobic as well. One can be racist and xenophobic at the same time. The way that certain elezen NPC treated the miqo'te NPC is one of probably more examples. He doesn't like outsider adventurers in "his" city, but he hates even more that there are miqo'te poachers abouts.
I wasn't disagreeing.

I think Yves was just saying "Yeah, that guy is pretty prejudiced. He even calls you 'outsider' along WITH being racist."
This is a perfect example of not being able to get tone from text. I completely misinterpreted it as disagreement. /sorry
