Sure, there are tons of foreigners in Geneva, since e.g. CERN is there. But native Swiss people will never consider you their equal. You can live and work in Switzerland for your whole life, but they will never consider you Swiss.
Of course, they are also very polite about it. I’m not talking about US-redneck-tier xenophobia.

But it's the same in many countries. I don't necessarily see a problem with that. Do you view this issue as problematic and if so, why? I live in Thailand and Thai people will never consider me a Thai, even if I would speak fluent Thai and would conform to all societal norms. I've moved to Thailand and decided that regardless of this, it's a decent place for me to stay, better than The Netherlands where I came from.
