It bothers me when Latino people start using Latinx just because white people/institutions tell them too

Yes, it's absolutely shocking that white people know so much more about other cultures and races. How they're oppressed and misrepresented and assure those cultures and races that they indeed do know better, while having zero to limited exposure to those races and cultures. Of course it's not racism and prejudice of the highest order, the white people just know better. /s

It’s particularly hilarious since one could make the argument that forcing Latinos to use Latinx is a form of “white colonialism,” which is the exact opposite of the intent.
