| Topic | Democrats fall flat with 'Latinx' language |

I'm gonna go out on a limb and suggest that a not-insignificant amount of people of Latin descent are the more traditional type, and draw a strong sense of identity from their heritage; so anyone, anywhere saying or implying that the very word they use to denote said heritage is now incorrect is going to ruffle their feathers. I doubt that demographic particularly cares who coined the term, who's currently pushing it, or the actual degree to which it's being pushed - any attempt to change tradition is seen as an attack on said tradition by those most deeply rooted in it. And blame for unwelcome progressive changes is typically laid at the feet of, well, the political party that has the greater number of progressives in it. Well said. Btw, a snowflake is a person who gets unreasonably upset or offended about something and demands the world change to accomodating them. Disliking or even being offended by something 98% of people dislike, snd simply being honest when asked in a poll is not being a snowflake. --- "joe is attractive and quite the brilliant poster" - Seiichi Omori https://imgur.com/TheGsZ9 ...
