That's the Bill Maher excuse for not being woke. Gets offended for John Leguizamo using Latinx because "only 3% of Latinos use it" The march is forward, not to the "good ol' days."

excuse for not being woke

Wow look who just appropriated AAVE. Hypocrite much?

See how fucking ridiculous this gets to be?

Am I supposed to stop listening to black music? Stop going to hip hop dance class? Am I still allowed to watch Chris Rock?

Do i have to quit my jazz band because we are an all white/latino group appropriating black music...?

There is a line to be drawn with cultural appropriation but saying "lit" is not it

And i am someone who most of my hobbies revolve around some form of black culture and not one black person has ever complained about my "wokeness" or whatever the fuck

Sorry I hate to bust out the "wokescolds" term but you guys are literally being a bunch of fucking woke scolds

Can't have a struggle session without someone pivoting to ridicule.

If you have a friend it should be okay.

If you're appropriating (your words, not mine) that's an iffy yellow card.

Just because people don't say something doesn't mean they don't harbor the thoughts. How do you think they'd feel seeing you get all worked up about such a benign topic?

This ain't it

Latinx is fucking stupid. It makes no sense in either English or Spanish.

[–] LoMeinTenants@hexbear.net 0 points 4 years ago (1 children)

That's because you're not pronouncing it right. It's latinx.

Latin equis? That sounds like something a stupid white anglo came up with without even thinking about how it would sound in Spanish.

Latinos is already gender neutral. But if you think that's too male oriented at least use something that sounds good, like latines.
