You all are overthinking it way too much.

Most people hate anything that's different or uncommon to themselves and their "world".

Simple as that.

It's heterophobia in the semantic sense of the word "fear of anything that's different".

    I always thought that xenos was more refering to people from outside, like physically from a different place.

    But I really know nothing about words, greek, latin or whatever. So it will probably be a better choice of words.
