It’s like illegal immigrants (Mexicans in my area) are the boogeyman that everybody around me agrees to hate. What, materially speaking, is causing this?

    Racism

    For proletarians, it’s the fear of losing your job to someone who is most likely willing to work for shittier conditions than you out of desperation and an inability to be choosy from say having no family around to help you out.

    For the bourgeois, the fear of a lack of control - say from either a rise in crime making the chance of getting murdered in their homes go up from 0,01% to 0,015% or from getting the workers angry and aware of exploitation or any other breakup of the state that acts in their interest.
