Definitely a white people thing but also conservative white people hate it. And none of my latino/latina friends use it, so I’m not sure who’s pushing for it in the first place.

obviously the people I know don't speak for the entire community, but my girlfriend and close latino friends all think it's disrespectful to the history of the culture

how do you pronounce latinx? is it LatinX like StockX?

Latino academics and LGBT/feminist people Idk how white people or anyone but Latinos getting the blame for this ITT tbh everyone just following they lead.

This Is a classic case of a none issue in real life like no one is debating this really just don't use it if you don't want too or unless someone says too.

its some bullshit

its like twitch using womxn

I think you’re right, looking back the first time I ever heard of it was a few years ago in college when one of my roommates took a Latino History class and started telling us about it when he got back to the dorm. What is school without a little brainwashing I guess.

And big facts in that second part of your post.

It is lmao

I feel like the broader the group the whiter the terms are 😂

It’s so funny cuz most enbies/trans females hate that term. Like breh, they wanna be INCLUDED as women not have a whole nother word made up for em

Yea

it's a term for spiritually anglo-american people, of any race, whose minds have been colonized by boutique bohemian race theory

ofc, not that big of a deal to use or not either way, but it is funny to act offended that it is some horrendous anglo imposition sometimes

Some of y'all fw it last time

Im not latino so i wnt speak on this

If only other groups afforded black people this same respect

I'm hxrny

A lot of the terms are white created terms

I prefer Chicano

Interestingly enough, France is kind of going through this as well, where the letter "e" at the end of words makes things more "feminine" in French, and they're kind of also trying to make the language more inclusive.

Where I live (South America) I'm considered white but when I lived in Canada for a year I was considered latino. I cringed on how they pronounce my name, man. Made me feel so bad fr. RAWDREYGOW or some s***... I started calling every Peter, Pedro and William, Guilherme

Glad I saw this thread
