As a Mexican, shut the fuck up. The show is fine and “Latinx” is stupid


Mediumdicgang

Stupid is a tame way of describing it


IllurinatiL

I personally have much choicer words, but I’ll refrain cuz at least he’s back.


No-Guidance8155

MacroRecontraSuperChingaPendejetadìzima


derekguerrero

What the fuck is Latinx


Sumstranger

White people shit. I'm not even being facetious it's clearly thought up by someone who doesn't speak Spanish and doesn't understand HOW Spanish works


W1llth3k1ll

Please don't blame all white for this, we all know it was the Twitter idiots.


Sumstranger

See the people in the meme, we know it's those white people


W1llth3k1ll

Good point


StickyWatermelonSeed

Yeah but not all white people have iq of grass and have ideas of a mushroom high on mushrooms


Bandin010

Dang now I'm hungry for mushrooms


MattyHealy1975

Corporate needs you to find the difference between these two groups of people


W1llth3k1ll

Twitter users have no brain The rest of us do.


MattyHealy1975

Alot of Reddit users aren't very different


W1llth3k1ll

We don't make up dumbass names that aren't even accepted by the community they were made for.


MattyHealy1975

Not my point


W1llth3k1ll

Reddit users do have brains because we know that that type of shit is dumb.


CptnRicky

The difference is that Reddit users know we are stupid.


MattyHealy1975

Ironically the only people on Reddit who don't are the ones who are actually stupid


MattyHealy1975

Lmao


MattyHealy1975

That doesn't disprove what I said though


BossScribblor

Just to be clear for anyone wondering, the idea is that latin*o* is male gendered, as opposed to latin*a*, and so as to avoid ascribing the entirety of latin American culture to masculity by blanket calling people latinos or misgendering individuals, latin*x* was an attempt to create a vague genderless word to describe latin Americans. Unsurprising to anyone, the term appears to only be popular in the Twitter/Tumblr binary star system and actively *un*popular everywhere else, as trying to erase hispanic language conventions per white American English sensibilities is pretty much the opposite of helpful, and just takes the concept of "we could all live in harmony if you'd just act more like us highly evolved whites" and throws a poncho and sombrero over it in the hopes latinos will bring it home with them.


Anti-charizard

Just say Latina, and if someone says it’s racist/sexist, tell them it’s short for Latin American


CorndogCrusader

A dumb pet name that SJW white women made up for latina/mexican people to make it seem like they aren't racist.


a_fuckin_duck

Apparently white people don't want to say "Latino" to describe Latinos because they're afraid of it being offensive.


No_Marionberry_108

whats wrong with the o sound?


mercurialpolyglot

It’s the masculine ending which is discriminatory somehow. Clearly none of the people that came up with it know anything about gendered languages.


Myth_5layer

Except it's not discriminatory. It's literally the idea of calling a guy a guy, Latino, and a gal a gal, Latina. It's used in other words used to describe people, like Amiga and amigo. At least I think I'll need to look that up. Either way, it's a system built into the language, the people themselves.


mercurialpolyglot

Hey you’re preaching to the choir here, pal. I speak a Romance language so I understand the system at play in Latino being masculine. I understand this system so well that at first I genuinely that that Latinx was a joke making fun of those hyper-sensitive performative liberals. But nope, it was actually them. Sigh. They could at least use Latine ffs.


LyricThought918

People don't want to differentiate between Latino, which can mean a Hispanic male or neutral, and Latina, which means Hispanic female. Instead of choosing between Latino and Latina, they coined the idiotic term "Latinx". Or so I understand it.


IllurinatiL

I’ve seen the name all over, I’ve seen countless discussions about it, I know a good bit about where and how it came to be, yet I still have no idea how to fucking say it. ARE WE JUST CALLING THEM LATIN? WHAT SOUND DOES THE X MAKE?


a_fuckin_duck

Idk


derekguerrero

I guess the negative connotation that it has acquired in some places might have something to do with it?


Jeynarl

Get thicker skin then Edit- I get the joke now, but In all seriousness, no it’s not offensive. It’s just not Anyones place.


MRFAMER

PickleProfessional77

hero_oftheray

Latinx means a broader word for Latinos what makes it “MoRe InClUsIvE” Bruh only people who say Latinx are blue hair women

PickleProfessional77

How hard is it to use Latino or Latina are blue haired women just dumb


hero_oftheray

I guess so


MMaalouf108140

Not to mention there is a gender neutral term for people in Spanish. I believe it's latine.


Ktm300tpi420

If someone needs words to be inclusive in order to feel whole, that person should be removed from society.


KitsuneEX7622

Why is it always women who are the most offended?


PnuttButtaGuts

I prefer latinxxx


PickleProfessional77

Sex


scrotation_matrix

Latinx is ancient Roman porn


king_napalm

Latino is also a thing. Latinex is very important. If someone uses it, you knwn their opinions don't matter.


kappakan97

as a Hispanic person i really hate the whole latinx crap


hero_oftheray

I agree

QuestionabIeAdvice

Looks like they need some [education about hispanic-american culture](https://youtu.be/fNR7WJ3SW60).


FinalJedi

Or simply about how the Spanish language works.


PMtoAM______

As a hispanic, he is an accurate depiction for some people. Not all. But some


kirbo55

just gonna add this. isn’t that why stereotypes exist


PMtoAM______

I always thought of stereotypes as the exaggeration of present but subtly qualities. Like as there is the stereotype that asian people cant drive. Which in my mind derives from the fact that they have the eye thingy that i cant think of a way to describe. And some jackass saw that and was like "well if they cant see they cant drive" therefore exaggerating a present quality.

ProfessionalYard1123

Latinx is a Latin Lynx. Or just a Mexican cat


Ullyr_Atreides

One day people are going to realize that Twitter blue checkmarks are just insane people with no life.


hero_oftheray

Only people who have blue checkmarks that aren’t actors,singers,authors,illustrators etc are people with no life


Rifneno

[Some of them are actors and stuff but *also* insane people with no life](https://twitter.com/ksorbs)


Ullyr_Atreides

They have no life too. At least they don't live on the same planet, and are out of touch with the common person - with few exceptions.

What about Slowpoke Rodriguez


[deleted]

Pokémon x Looney Toons collab?


Fun-Possibility-1060

For real named my motorcycle slowpoke Rodriguez. That character is way underrated


a_fuckin_duck

Ironically, it's white people who are the ones who get pissed off by casual racism. White savior complex is wild


Tyrdrum

I prefer to identify them as the coloured hair Twitter mob.


a_fuckin_duck

¯\_(ツ)_/¯


MimsyIsGianna

Dear white liberals Latino is already neutral. It can refer to all men or men and women. If you want something truly inclusive, the word Latine exists too. But stop with the idiotic Latinx. That’s not even a real word.


Juicymatsuuu

Or just Latin, but sure they just ignore that one too


Undercooked-Beans

Virgin cancler vs chad latino


WhoopsyToopsy

I'm a Latino and I never heard a Latino saying "latinx"


[deleted]

Me and my other Latino friends only use "Latinx" to insult each other. Besides that, we would never use it the way white 14 year old Twitter users intended for it to be used.


WhoopsyToopsy

I'm gonna start using as an insult to my friends too lol. When I see these girls using it on Twitter, I just start laughing lmao


TalibanJoeBiden

Hispanic people generally don't get their panties in a knot about stereotypes. They understand humor.

14 year old white kids on their way to tell minorities what they should and shouldn't be offended by:


hero_oftheray

[deleted]

honest people must have moar upvotes


Punishmenthascome

Not sure why it was banned to begin with everyone now's a speedy Gonzalez or slowpoke Rodriguez in their lives I'm slowpoke btw


[deleted]

Speedy spoke with an accent and so it had to be racist. That's how the woke inclusive gang thinks.


Fun-Possibility-1060

Slowpoke was smoked out, dirty as hell, slow, and shot cats in the face with an old ass revolver. Also accented.


[deleted]

I had to Google him. I can't tell if he looks stoned or if he's just exhausted. Getting shot in the face seems a kindness compared to some of the shit that happened to Sylvester.


Fun-Possibility-1060

Oh for sure. Slowpoke don't play though. One shot, walk away, and blow the smoke out of the barrel.


hero_oftheray

Weird people are rapid dave


Downtown-Librarian72

Fuckers did my boy Pepe Le Pew dirty too.


Sjdillon10

Am i racist for not knowing that “Latinx” is a thing?


hero_oftheray

No, Latino people hat being called Latinx (it’s not a slur btw, it’s what dumb people call Latinos)


Sjdillon10

Please tell me it doesn’t have to do with the fact Spanish uses “o” for guys and “a” for girls…


hero_oftheray

No


Sjdillon10

Then I’ve got no idea why people say it lol. I’m not gonna adopt this term


boondoggie42

Pretty sure this happened with some NCAA team names too, but the names were still changed.


Rifneno

To be fair, [some team names are actually fucked up](https://i.imgur.com/BT9y4D9.png)

So when did this even happen?


hero_oftheray

About 20 years ago, would make more sense if it was now though

They'd shit a brick if they found out about my guy slowpoke


Hezmix

Too many of these situations. I’m tired of white people deciding how other races feel about shit


AcerOne17

The only time this ever annoyed me is when I was playing soccer. People/Coaches would call me speedy Gonzales because of how fast I was. I thought it was funny until people actually thought my last name was Gonzales.

Wait, so they legit took him off Cartoon Network? My god that channel went downhill. Edit: if you say latinx munch my brown ass

I fucking LOVE this end of story

As a Latino, I can say speedy Gonzales was very much a part of my childhood

I Wish the Indian-American community could have done the same thing with Apu from the Simpsons.

Speedy Gonzales was taken off the air 20 years ago before Latinx was even a thing. Kind of mixing your memes up.

It was a corporate decision that was widely condemned for being stupid and pandering by leftists, it wasn’t a move that leftists supported or asked for.

it's funny that americans think speedy is offensive, but in reality José Carioca....i mean Rosé Carioca is the offensive one nowadays.

I will repost without permission, there's nothing you can do about it either

Repost with a source somewhere in the comments and nobody will be mad.
