@osint_69 Wanted to add though, I've interacted with people who've either fled Russia or plan to. Need to stipulate, you can hate the situation without negatively stereotyping a population, though you can hardly blame pro-Ukrainians (myself included) for harboring resentment
@dontbeasheeeep@Faytuks We're sending stuff that would otherwise be collecting dust. And money that we do 'send' for new equipment is actually spent right here on US soil, in our industries and ultimately benefitting workers...
@Wizards_DnD First, you pissed us off with predatory policy changes. Now, you're walking the policy back & gaslighting the community, trying to convince us that it was for our benefit. We want honesty and transparency, not this load of horseshit. Do better, and start by changing leadership.
@GzWest1 @NBCNews ¡Gracias! Y perdón por molestarte al respecto. Mis amigos lo piensan lo misma sobre "Latinx", es estupido. Nadie sabe siquiera como decirlo. "Latin@" me intersa, es como un "o" y un "a" en la misma letra 🤔
@DukeofDaytona06 @NBCNews I was just saying it's what the people in my life irl have said they prefer to Latinx, Latino, or Latina. If you don't want me to call you "Latine", I won't, I'll use whichever term you prefer, but I'm still gonna refer to my friends as "Latine" since that's what they asked of me
@DnDBeyond Absolutely braindead move by execs who are out of touch with their community. Abysmal. Goodbye DDB subscription, sorry if we were "obstacles to your money" or whatever
Breaking: Vice Chancellor Robert Habeck said Germany should not block Poland's request (if one is made) to send its Leopard tanks to Ukraine.
"Germany should not stand in the way when other countries make decisions to support Ukraine, regardless of what decision Germany makes."
@TangoDelta815@NWSHuntsville Here's what NOAA says: https://t.co/I4Eb2FHJoS
Looks like it is best not to get into a vehicle, period, but if you're already in one, if a tornado is far away and slow then you can drive at right angles to move out of a tornado's path.
@Bahomamey @NBCNews Very interesting. Mind if I ask what age group you're in? I'm the weird transition between gen z and millennial, so curious if it's a regional vs age vs obscure friend group thing then
@DukeofDaytona06 @NBCNews I'm white. I can't really dispute your tweet because I'm not the group who is the most affected by the word(s) in question.i can tell you that my Latine friends prefer "latine" to "Latinx", but it's such a small sample size of folks who can't speak for the entire Latino/a/e/x pop
@harmonica_cafe@NBCNews To be completely fair, I'm just a rando on the internet and not latina either. Just posting what some latine friends have commented about it. I'd recommend talking to the people it affects over taking my word for it
@NBCNews Horrible priorities. To be fair though, "latine" is more commonly accepted among the group the word is actually meant to describe. "Latinx" doesn't really work with the Spanish pronunciation of the end letter. I've always used what my friends have asked me to use, so "latine"
