Why did they have that stupid word to begin with?
You can’t take gender out of language.

The snooty white liberals who likely came up with it are having a sad today.

"Let's stop using Latinx in all official communications," García said, adding that it's "very unliked" by almost all Latinos.

Well it was probably some white or half white leftist that came up with it in the first place.

The interesting part of this is that they are rediscovering their heritage and throwing out progressive ideas?

Spanish language has genders.

Humans have a sex, male or female.

GOOD!

I’m sick of liberals and progressives deciding for people what they should be called, what the PC thing is.

Screw that.

Yup—the crazy leftists are probably gonna try to “fix” the Spanish language.

Good luck with that.

“Latinx is very unliked by almost all Latinos”

So let’s drop the “preferred pronoun” crap altogether.

I think the democrats are scaring the crap out of them. They left their homelands and came here for a reason. They don’t want the United States of El Salvador, Venezuela, Nicaragua, etc

The word is a stupid made up label.

Of course people do not like it.

“You can’t take gender out of language.”

Especially out of Romance languages!

Gender is actually a linguistic concept. Living creatures do not have a gender they have a sex.

The conflation of those two things is where they started getting stupid, then of course, they got even stupider, then they went mad. That’s where we’re at now.

Exactly. I’ve had people get mad at me for pointing that out.
My first language was Italian, second English and I know a few others.

Can we drop so-called inclusive language in English as well?

Exactly. Agree with both of you.

If you haven’t done so already...look up John Money who invented the modern sociological concept of “gender”.

He was a degenerate academic who drove a boy to suicide by trying to turn him into a girl.
