1st latinx is more inclusive. I don’t care if people want to use it. But Hispanic and Latino isn’t an exact fit either. Some of us are more native than Spanish. And any amount of research into the history of Spanish and European colonization will make you realize those terms were created by others to label us as the “other”. 2nd yes it’s stacked against us. Nothing wrong with wanting to change that. Just because I had to sleep in my college’s library floor during finals to compete and work full time doesn’t mean I want others to have to go through that. I won’t let that experience make me bitter and tell people to stop “crying”. 3rd what was that all about? You realize you are pushing the same narrative that is used against us onto others? I agree with you in spirit but this is also a good example of scars that the struggle leaves on us. Let the girl express what we had to keep quiet about. Let her point out all the slights against us that we had to swallow. Be supportive. Be compassionate. Be kind. In spite of what we went through. Empower the next generation. That’s how we win.

@@User-yc5zz latinx isn't a word in the Spanish vocabulary, it's an English word. Secondly Latino Is gender exclusive, don't like it cuz It's "masculine" use LATIN. "I don't care If people want to use it" you obviously care if you think it's inclusive 🤦‍♀️

@@oddgbmo3036 Lots of words aren't part of an official vocabulary. That's why they add new words to the dictionary every year. I don't think that hits the way you think it does. The second argument follows that if I can describe an attribute about a thing then i must care. I guess that's correct? If that's your takeaway and that's the best... counter argument? Barely. Well whatever that word salad is, best of luck to you. :)

@@User-yc5zz LatinX is unpronounceable in Spanish itself. How is another language (English) gonna bully another language (Spanish) to tell them to pronounce a word that they created, to pronounce it in their language which is impossible to do. Lol That’s imperialism right there.

That's a very poorly thought out argument.

I'll go one more , mexican are no less indigenous than N. America native nations. remember, there was no boarder here until the European showed up. all the Europeans of the 1800s brought the boarder with them. cutting off many tribal nations. history, being written by white European immigrants to north America. has totally and ignorantly told the our history. how can they tell indigenous history when they cant even understand indigenous languages.
