You knew what the question was asking.
And yet racism needs addressing.
There was no implication that PR is a foreign country. Americans moving there would likely have a different experience than Canadians, Europeans, Mexicans, etc. because it's part of the US.
Just because "mainland USA" wasn't used doesn't mean it's racist. Would it have been perceived the same way if Hawaii was substituted?
Probably not, because everyone knows that Hawaii is a state but a lot of people don't know that Puerto Rico is a territory and the populace has citizenship.
Give it a fucking rest already, that ain't what we're talking about.
