Chuds going anti-corp because of ‘woke communist corporations’ is my favorite genre of delusion.

I’ve never seen a non-white person complain about Latinx.
I’ve seen cis latine people and even binary trans latine people complain about it, and latine as well, personally. Navigating the discourse about it is kinda hell lol.
I definitely have, but it’s the same sort of person who complains about singular they.
Come to my country and you’ll see people get knocked out over using it
ive heard people call latinx ugly and prefer latine or latinu. latinu is more common in brazil, latine (-e) is considered standard by the governments of cuba and argentina
I’ve never heard a white person pronounce it correctly either.
It feels like for every there’s 100 or 1,000 unhinged G*mers baying for poc and LGBTQ blood.
Trans people is a whole other rabbit hole, they say they are either a man or a woman but refuse to be called by it and want to be called trans man/woman, cause they want to be special
lmao what? no call me a woman, I’m totally fine with that. I’m only a trans woman with friends.
Did this person hear about how terfs refuse to be called cis women and get the entire idea backwards?
“Why do trans women call themselves trans if they want to be treated like women” is a line I’ve heard before and it’s an attempt to gotcha the whole community afaik
“i can’t even deal with these transjenders! they all want me to [made up rule that no trans person ever asked them to do]!”
The victim complex of these people is staggering. like just make 1 trans friend. or even an acquaintance. shit is honestly not complicated at all.
Now if only they got that mad about racism…
(Also, what’s the Hexbear party line on latinx?)
(Also, what’s the Hexbear party line on latinx?)
AFAIK it’s something like “the term itself is a bit niche, latine is maybe more common as a gender neutral term, but anyone making a fuss about it is a chud.”
i want to ban video games, just to see the g*mers lose their shit. then we send them to
G*ming speakeasy in the time of the revolution.
good, make them work for their treats
Ah, of course they’re on r/destiny2
If they tried that on r/destinythegame, they know they’d get banned
Fuck, there used to be a comrade from the old sub on r/destiny2’s mod team who’d deal with stuff like this, but looks like he’s gone now.
Yeah, the great purge hasn’t ended yet unfortunately
I wish there was a small electrode that would seek out and painfully shock anyone who uses the word narrative this much
I’d be down for some jolts for “agenda” too.
And it’s even funnier
Raging chuds and libs stop saying things are “funny/interesting/ironic/curious” when what they mean is they’re enraged challenge. Difficulty level: “It’s almost as if”
Honest question: what is the take on Latinx here?
AFAIK it’s something like “the term itself is a bit niche, latine is maybe more common as a gender neutral term, but anyone making a fuss about it is a chud.”
Elsewhere in this thread this was said.
I’ve met some leftists latine people with different takes, including “linguistic gender is different and latino is already inclusive” but I’ve seen enough nonbinary latine people say otherwise to not take that seriously (plus it was on a server dominanted by people with really bad takes like xenogenders bad and kink at pride bad. Predominantly ML server as well its a weird culture.)
Makes sense, thank you
plus it was on a server dominanted by people with really bad takes like xenogenders bad and kink at pride bad.
Someone should do a study to see if queer people who have one bad take about their own community tend to have the rest. I hypothesize the existence of a transmed mindset that leads to it, “respectability politics above all else”.
Interestingly, they aren’t transmeds, but the trans person that enables the rest of them to be shitty by telling them their opinions are ok is very much an assilimationist and that drives a lot of her opinions. Oddly she isnt against neos either though. So she doesnt have EVERY bad opinion you can have.
Well, obviously everyone in the group isn’t going to have the same exact set of takes (especially less likely to actually be transmed now that it’s more universally hated) but that might still be correlations
Her take on xenogenders is that its “not a materialist take on what gender is” (she’s like, almost religiously obsessed with materialism in a weird way) and when me and some other people tried to point out that this is like the exact same thing faux-Marxists transmeds say, and indeed what faux-Marxist full on transphobes say, she said “yeah but in this case I’m right”.
that’s literally vulgar materialism lol
latine (and just -e in general) is standard in cuba and argentina, and is referenced on gov documents
i’m not a spanish speaker, so what i have to say doesn’t rly matter, but i’ve yet to see it championed by a predominantly spanish-speaking organization or activist.
in general i think generating new linguistic signifiers for having the right politics is easily confused with having the right politics, which is easily confused with actually doing politics.
Truly some of the dumbest motherfuckers. No shade to anyone who enjoys Destiny, but seems like looter shooters really attract the lowest common denominator of gamers.
As somebody who enjoys a whole lot of dumb guy games, my experience is that looter shooters often attract edgelords and people who overly serious about themselves and the video games they play. It’s a pain in the ass demographic, but I think there’s still a worse contingent in Old School Runescape. IMO, it’s without question the most forwardly nazi/neckbeard audience of any mainstream game. I mean like “if you go to any popular training spot and play for an hour, you’ll see at least one conversation about whether women are getting too uppity or if (((they))) are human” level awful. They have a yearly pride parade in-game run by the devs and every year and the hate was so bad they have to explicitly say in the newspost for it that crashing it will get you banned, no warnings.
“killingjoke96” lmfao
I thought that line was pretty good when I heard it in Cyberpunk, but I underestimated how unbelievably dense gamers are. These people really played through that entire game and went away thinking “this is just like pronouns”.
Actual moment of “JUST LIKE THE CYBERPUNKERINOS” treatbraining.
Saying “The majority of Spanish speaking communities object to the use of novel nonbinary suffixes” isn’t really context any more than saying “The majority of english speakers hate nonbinary pronouns.”
Okay, so there are a fuckton of spanish speaking bigots? Thanks. Never would have guessed. The context that would actually be useful here is what nonbinary spanish speaking communities think of these.
“Um, actually, that’s not gramatically correct!” No shit? You mean that people trying to reform a language aren’t sticking to the current language standards? Incredible.
Yeah, I was going to ask is there genuinely a more preferred term that non-binary people like to use, or is this more akin to people throwing a tantrum similar to “You can’t use they as a singular pronoun!! You want me to refer to you as multiple people?!?!?”
Latine or latin@ have been used. Latine is more of what I see. Latinx is a largely American creation from what I’ve seen and is difficult to pronounce in Spanish. Latine is a lot more natural to say.

Oh boy. The LatinX argument. Nobody I know is even really aware of it and the few that are tend to have studied abroad or consume a lot of Anglo media. The right-wing in the capitol hates the word and uses it as an example of “American woke culture” brainwashing us.
I’m not really fond of it because it’s difficult to pronounce and sounds goofy. US latinos are more than welcome to use it if it’s their preference. We have ours that work well for us.
