I suspect there's little systemic racism in Poland

I would suspect there's a lot of systemic racism, but more focused on "holding the line" of immigration rather than attacking the existing minority groups.

    Probably true. But then there's a lot of immigration happening, especially to Warsaw from places other than Ukraine. I don't know how it statistically compares to other countries around us.

    I also just realized there's no definition of ethnic diversity on this picture, and where exactly the data is from, so it could be pretty skewed.

    It seems like (at least according to wikipedia) true immigration to Poland is tiny (~10,000 per year ). Poland allows a huge amount of temporary workers, though. Germany and Czechia, for example, have roughly 10x the amount of immigration per 1000 people.

    Definitely important. It's all a social construct anyway. Its like any kind of taxonomy where you have lumping and splitting of groups. A country could choose to group a bunch of related groups for nationalistic purposes, or they could chose to create in-groups and outgroups.
