I applaud you for realizing that this is not the #1 issue with which you need to be concerned.
well it is for me. in LA.CA 8 of 10 jobs require spanish and i have the hubris to speak english. so my job prospects are cut 90%. ive been unemployed for a year. with covid im SOL. so dont talk to me about it helping the economy.
if people just followed the law and learned the language it would be fine. but they dont, and its not.
our population is out of control ....we dont NEED ANYMORE PEOPLE.
Going by your reflexive judgement, I'm thinking you need to worry about your own hatred (and, likely, deep-seated prejudice) before you point fingers at anyone else.
I'm a LEGAL immigrant to the US with a family full of immigrants (to another country), and I'm very pro-immigrant.
I'm also 100% opposed to illegal immigration, because no one has the right to enter another country illegally or to remain in that country illegally. It wouldn't have entered my head to do this. It wouldn't have occurred to my parents or my aunts and uncles to do this. Because it's wrong. Period.
By your logic, seeing as you're a guy, and the poster you responded to is a woman, I guess I can assume you're a misogynist?

She said, "I have an almost all legal immigration client listas a small business bookkeeper and tax preparer. Most are great people, just like my own family and I have great respect for them."
Where is the hatred?
There is none. That poster chooses to see hatred in others because he, himself, hates (whites).
I find many Latinos dislike whites (and Blacks and Asians, Arabs, etc). So, why do they want to come this country full of whites (and blacks and Asians and Arabs)?.

I also didn't see anything in that woman's comments that was akin to hatred. She stated some facts but the pro-illegals attribute any negative facts about illegal aliens being spoken or written as hatred.

Yeah, that's their typical response. It's illogical, it's stupid, and it's reflective of their own bigotry.
A lot of border talk can easily come across as racist, most especially now as racism - real or merely perceived - has been weaponized on a grand scale. A lot of what I hear from the restrictionist point of view is amazingly perfect fodder for anybody already primed and willing to throw the racism bomb.
I have a foot in both camps, so I default to restrain from calling anybody racist. But there’s undeniably some pretty rigid thinking going on with a lot of people who want to strengthen the border/limit immigration. I think it’s ultimately more helpful to try and get folks to think about something they perhaps have not thought of before than to just read a post and label the poster as racist. That doesn’t really get us anywhere.
What's rigid about objecting to illegal entry and securing our border? Illegal immigration isn't immigration anyway it's an invasion. Most Americans don't object to legal immigration in the numbers that we actually need and that won't impact our own citizens negatively. Sounds like sane immigration policy to me and certainly not rigid. That's why we have annual quotas for legal immigration.
It's not being rigid to not want another amnesty either. Americans need their jobs back and illegal aliens will never pay in enough taxes to cover their social costs either way. Amnesties just encourage more illegal immigration. This excess population growth has also strained our social and natural resources our taxes and created overcrowded conditions. Better to enforce our immigration laws internally and on the border and to remove all of the incentives for them to remain here and to continue to come here rather than rewarding it.

I’d like to know where the assumption about “hatred towards whites” comes from? The original poster did not identify what their race was. Nor did I. The white race has absolutely no relevance to this discussion.
