Edit: very ironic to be called woke on a post discussing intersectionality btw.
Let’s be clear. Making a joke at someone’s expense? That is an insult. If that insult is predicated on the fact they don’t know your native language as well as you do, that is an insult targeting their culture (or lack of full integration into your own).
Assuming it from a western-centric perspective that the commenter themselves is from somewhere English is a native language:
Definitionally, objectively, undeniably, it was xenophobia.
If it was from another non-native English speaker… boohoo I called an asshole a xenophobe on the internet. Shut up, losers.
It’s xenophobic to ridicule a non-native speaker and ask them if they had a stroke. You are ridiculing them and making a joke at their expense.
You also have a lot of gall to comment on how other people speak, to be honest. Your mastery of the English language is lacking. Maybe it’s not your first language either?
Did you have a stroke?
ok xenophobe

So, when did xenophobia mean not being able to understand misspelled word salads?

Sure.
