I think as with any other country people form nationalisitc or bigoted opinions without a personal involvement in whatever it is that's bothering them. Some old whisky-drunk guy in issan who's never even seen a farang may BS to his friends about all these no good farang coming here, meanwhile his daughter working in bangkok is falling in love with you and praying to buddha for bringing you to her. You just have to judge things on your personal relationships with people and the things that directly affect your life.
Same same with USA really and all the Bush voters - people could draw a similar conclusion that gays, muslims, women having an abortion, etc are completely unwelcome and disliked.
