Your example regarding immigrants & hate agrees with my observations. I believe those host nations that (as far as I could tell) harbour no hatred towards immigrants could be separated into two categories: countries where locals tend to feel broadly confident, and countries where locals tend to feel innately superior to non-locals. In the former countries, immigrants indeed seem to be perceived simply as a bunch of differently-looking people with quirky customs. In the latter countries, feeling of superiority seems to preclude anger or hate, but contempt seems to be possible in some circumstances (I suspect contempt might be fear in presence of superiority).
