With Apologies to Sena Bryer

[SwadTheFrog]

Don't forget the racism. No one knows the Latin American culture and language better than FlowerMilk, not even the native inhabitants! I feel like FlowerMilk is always trying to one up SwadTheFrog and Midare, who are both Latin American Natives iirc? Like man the colonization and racism are strong as heck in this one.

Correct -we both are, but man, the moment the "Latinx" argument was brought up, I've just been laughing from afar - it's the death knell for anyone arguing about south american/latino folks, as it's either someone trolling - which is what I actually believe Flower Milk is -I genuinely think he's a twenty-somethings lad having the time of his life messing with people, instead of what they *claim* to be, or someone that is *genuinely* colonialist and hilariously racist. Midare put it way better than I could with their comment.

Either options don't paint the user well regardelss. I'm just going for the interpretation that paints them *better*.

You know, it's funny. For the longest time I thought nothing could actually offend me no matter what I hear.

And then in comes english speakers who are terminally online with the whole "latinx" thing.

The sheer, visceral annoyance that word and its adjacents causes me it's hard to describe in detail.

Honestly ignore it, like I said, it's either of those two, and in either case, it's someone that's not worth the attention. I'd like to note that Latinx is rejected even in the most liberal universitis in SA, so why give it attention?

My lovely spouse is French and Spanish (from Barcelona/Perpignon area), and I asked what their feelings on the word were. They shook their head in sadness, before telling me about the mess in French from the bastardisation some English speakers in America are pushing into all other languages.

Don't use Latinx in polite company please.

Oh I know, but it's still fascinating to see how far they're willing to go with stuff like this.

I swear, people can make fun of my country, our economical situation, my culture, accent. Anything.

Say latinx...

It still makes a bunch of these other absolute exemplars of... something... spaz out so win for me.

This is how I recharge my slack. Can't take that from me.

I really hope FlowerMilk isn't Sena or anyone remotely connected to them. I know they probably aren't, but that would be a level of omegalul I'm literally, physically, not equipped to deal with. I would probably die from lack of oxygen or something equally embarrassing.

What killed you faster:
1) use Latinx in Mexico
2) insult Dragon Ball or Akira Toriyama in Mexico

Do both at the same time to end up turbodead.

tough question, i'd add the third option:
3) insult King of Fighters in Mexico
