First came “Latinx.” Now comes “Filipinx,” the woke left’s latest attempt to gender-neutralize an entire ethnicity. And just like “Latinx,” the new term is proving to be massively unpopular among the very people it refers to — in this case, Filipinos and Filipino-Americans.

San Diego Comic-Con is being widely ridiculed for using “Filipinx” in the title of its recent panel discussion “Filipinx Voices in Pop Culture,” which sought to explore “Filipinx influence behind your favorite media.”

The panel discussion, which took place Thursday at the Omni Hotel in San Diego, offered the following description:

“Filipinx/Filipinx-American influences can be found in every facet of pop culture. But have there been times when this culture has been pushed away from representation? Does the general population know how many Filipinx people are behind their favorite media?”
