Is it just me or does this appear to be racist?

The directive went out. No Latinos allowed.
The shoe yet to drop will rear its head after labor shortages become reality at harvest time. People think eggs are high now? Buckle up y'all.

Yes, of course it's racist.
But be aware that there are those on this forum who say that racism is the norm and there's nothing to be done about it.

Tribalism has been the norm for millions of years and still is to a large extent. Putting it aside and softening its effects does seemingly happen more and more in the modern age. What do you suggest there is that can be "done about" racism?

Some people lost the right to converse with me because their bigotry was more important.

Interesting that you seem to think racism is political? But OK, mods, please move this.

You nonetheless feel free to take pot shots from behind some imagined barrier. You see bigotry under the woodpile. Harmonious relations between people is a complicated thing. It can be easily disrupted. Kindness and generosity is not automatic. It is incumbent upon all people in all racial groups to behave in such a way that does not antagonize their neighbors.

Not sure why husky chose to put that thread here. I have tried in the past to get mods to move threads, I have private messaged them asking for that.
To no avail.

The estimates I've read is that we peoples had a common ancestor with chimpanzees somewhere between 6 and 13 million years ago. God only knows what our ancestors were like 1 million years ago. Well actually not just God, we do have some evidence of pre-humans from about .5 million years ago, correct me if I'm wrong. I'm sorry, speculating that we homo sapiens have had 1,000,000+ years of practice in tribalism is not really a stretch. Plus, the arrival of Euros in North America 500+ years ago gave a view on how humans in a latitude similar to that of their European homeland evolved socially. Indigenous Americans south of approximately the Canadian border, aside from small amounts of Polynesian DNA in parts of SA, had virtually identical genetic roots. Inuit people had some infusion from later Siberian migrations. So Indigenous American tribalism really cannot be construed as having a racist component. But it was intense nonetheless. They annihilated each other with abandon at various points. And when the white man showed up the tribal distinctions were unmistakable. Similar in Africa - when Whites showed up in South Africa, there was no doubt who was in which tribe.
