It can do, depending on context. But like most ambiguous phrases, a lot turns on context. Someone at a Trump rally with a MAGA cap on screaming 'send them back' and referring to people of colour, it's racist. Me getting grumpy with Tredz sending me the wrong things in my order again, and telling the clerks to send them back, it's not. In this case it clearly had racist overtones, particularly given other posts, but it's not explicitly racist.
