Unpopular opinion: The best thing young people can do early in their careers is to abandon their identity and start over in a coastal New England town as a mysterious but beloved local bartender

@Tronnyverse @RedFlareStar @LilithLovett @SirDeimosofMars But in that regard I don’t see anything wrong with calling the Latin American diaspora in the US Latinx.
It includes all Latinos, Latinas, and Latin American’s who don’t like or adhere to the binary.
This doesn’t take away from anyone still calling themselves Latino or Latina tho

[Nick Bassi @nicbas305]

@Tronnyverse @RedFlareStar @LilithLovett @SirDeimosofMars Well yeah in most cases you can just label yourself from your nationality if you’re a Latino/x who lives in Latin America. Latinx imho is mainly a word for articles, censuses, festivals even to describe a very diverse group of people. Seems like more of a written word than spoken

[Nick Bassi @nicbas305]

@RedFlareStar @Tronnyverse @LilithLovett @SirDeimosofMars yeah I agree, I mean it basically went;
“Hispanic” - nah not every Latin American is from a Spanish speaking country
“Latino” - well now a lot of people don’t adhere to the binary at all
“Latin@“ - nah this won’t catch on
“Latinx” - alright let’s try this out

[Nick Bassi @nicbas305]

@Tronnyverse @RedFlareStar @LilithLovett @SirDeimosofMars Latino is an American phenomenon. If you’re from Brazil or Peru and in S.A. or honestly any other country that’s not the US, you’d refer to yourself as Brazilian or Peruvian. Latinx caters to American intersectionality, but I don’t see it having anything to do with self-hate.

[Nick Bassi @nicbas305]

@axntgd @LilithLovett @SirDeimosofMars I’m literally Hispanic

[Nick Bassi @nicbas305]

@axntgd @LilithLovett @SirDeimosofMars The majority of the people I've seen spread the word are Latino/x people themselves. But I'll play into half your point - I did pick up the word from my Latinx professor.

@tastemade I’d be worried that I couldn’t smell the turkey in front of me and run out to get a covid test before the reveal
