Asians work harder; across species…

On my usual journey of acquiring knowledge in the scientific world by reading articles at New Scientist, I came across this one about Ants (‘Alien’ Argentine Ants May Have Met Their Match).
The Argentine ants are killing off other native ant species; and then now, there is a challenger to them: the Asian ant. They are both alien species and one of the possible reasons for the Asian ant spreading is because the Asian ant starts breeding earlier.

This lead to one comment which i found to be so funny

OK. So you are saying the Asian ants do better because they get up earlier and work harder than the Latino Ants. That sounds racist to me.

what do you think?
