Against Mexicans/Latinos. ie, the bit where someone throws all hispanohablante folk in to the “Illegal/Mexican” bucket, irrelevant of where they come from.
If you want to argue that’s xenophobia more than racism, sure, that’s probably accurate. But it doesn’t really change my point…
I don’t consider it a new point. I consider xenophobia and racism two slightly different manifestations of the same underlying mindset, and don’t consider the difference between the two to ever really matter in practical terms.
