Chuds going anti-corp because of 'woke communist corporations' is my favorite genre of delusion.
woke communist corporations
not 'cause capitalism's a thorn in my side
nostalgia for an America gone by
ITS A CORPORATE TWEET WHO FUCKING CARES YOU GODDAMN GOOBERS
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.
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.
Come to my country and you'll see people get knocked out over using it
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?
"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.
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.)
xenogenders are an actual thing? i thought that was some meme, what are xenogenders?
Essentially a method for people who would normally fall under the nonbinary banner to describe their gender as they don't really like that term and don't feel it is accurate because they feel they are distinct from other nonbinary people. Instead they use words to describe the feel of their gender which is where plants, or animals or other things come in.
Also people who want to say fuck gender altogether.
In addition to what awoo said, often a way for neurodiverse people to desribe their unique relationship with gender.
Makes sense, thank you
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.
latine (and just -e in general) is standard in cuba and argentina, and is referenced on gov documents

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.
