Well, for one thing that happened irl when I lived in Britain it was just kids going "go back to your country". It didn't get better with age, as in high school my new classmates got more radical, calling me jewish, making nazi and communist jokes whenever I was around and saying how "I can 'concentrate' very well due to experience." One time I was on discord and had a pfp with the Polish-Lithuanian commonwealth flag and this random person I NEVER spoke to started telling me how bad said commonwealth was despite me not even bringing it up once. Funny thing, that was my first and last interaction with them because I never saw them again on that server.

Thank you for sharing! Again, really sorry to hear that. People in school can be really horrible...
