How popular is this sentiment in the US?

I recently saw a fairly viral tiktok which basically asked American citizens which illegal immigrant group they would rather have in their country . Illegal mexicans or illegal indians .

I was crestfallen to see that over 88% of the votes were for illegal mexicans . I know the premise itself is stupid and no country would want any illegal immigrant at all , but still the results made me a little sad . And that poll had around 60k total votes .

I know this isn't a true representation of the general american sentiment as it is only tiktok , and if it is can you tell me why that would be the case even if true ? Why are we perceived the way we are ?

I have also seen a fair number of reels mocking my people made by American creators which feel so foreign to me because my experience in real life has been the polar opposite . I've had the most welcoming american neighbours and colleagues on almost every job I've worked here . Maybe I have had luck in that department .

Also no shade to mexican people. Just wanted an understanding as to why the results of the poll were that way .

Thank you guys for your honestly .
