Not only is Latinx not a Spanish word, it can&#8217;t even be pronounced in Spanish. How offensively paternalistic maternalistic mxternxlistic(?) is it of liberal, white Americans to rip the identity from brown-skinned people, and then impose on them a new identity, which is an unpronounceable collection of consonants &#8230; and THEN demand that Hispanics identify by this new, unpronounceable English word.<\/p>\n<p>One of the embarrassing bigotries of left-wing, monolingual, white supremacists is that they are oblivious to the fact that the entire Spanish language is gendered. Because of their racist ignorance of the Spanish language, they don&#8217;t understand that the gender of a noun is indicated by the definite article (&#8220;el&#8221; \/ &#8220;la&#8221; ) or the indefinite article (&#8220;un&#8221; \/ &#8220;una&#8221; ) more so than if a word ends in &#8220;a&#8221; instead of &#8220;o&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>American lefties have changed exactly one Spanish word to gender-neutral, and with that done, they now demand that Spanish speakers somehow converse like weird, left-wing English-speakers and remove all gender from their speech. This simply isn&#8217;t possible in Spanish. So, in effect left-wing white supremacists are shaming Spanish language speakers for using their native language. I can&#8217;t believe such ugly bigotry exists in 21st Century America.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, by imposing the transsexual term &#8220;Latinx&#8221; on all Hispanics, left-wing whites are asserting that all Hispanics are transsexuals, which could be culturally insulting. A liberal, white American woman may think she is complimenting an Hispanic man by telling him that she sees him as no different than a castrated cross-dresser, but he probably won&#8217;t take it as a compliment. But to be fair, most of the men in the orbit of woke white women would be flattered to be thought of that way.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At Ace of Spades H.Q., Buck Throckmorton explains why &#8220;Latinx&#8221; is a silly word-like mouthing that we should not encourage anyone to use: &#8220;Latinx&#8221; is a white supremacist term used by racist, left-wing Americans to marginalize Spanish speakers and to disparage their culture.
