Nobody needs/wants the white liberal to speak for them, but another voice in the crowd demanding something surely can't be a bad thing?
Apparently OP is "all white people are bad! the people who are on our side and those who are not! silence!!"
Depends
You're being downvoted but the stupidest thing I've ever seen is white people deciding Latinx structure was the proper way of making something gender neutral in Spanish.
We can't even fucking pronounce that in SPANISH!
But more annoyingly was that it ignored that there was already a gender neutral movement anyway that had started in Mexico that DID use something that could be pronounced: Latine structure.
It's honestly insane that (even as rarely as it's relevant for a european) this thread is the first I heard of "latine". All that discourse about latinx and NOW finally I'm being told that there's been a less stupid attempt at a solution before that. Finally I can stop feeling weird as I'm trying to decide whether to just say latinos as I have no idea what the socially accepted word is in the context I'm in. I can just say latine.
Honestly Latinos (plural) doesn't really bother most of us either because the language is just gendered, but doesn't mean we're literally thinking a chair is a woman or a tv is a man.
But, in the rare case where a gender neutral word would be better, such as referring to a person's gender (singular), then Latine and such is useful. So El, Ella, É etc
Im just having fun
