Kate Bedingfield, a former Biden comms director, told CNN that ‘Latinx’ didn’t resonate with voters during the 2020 campaign.
Cultural misappropriation by the Karens!
It’s difficult to believe that anyone could demonstrate tin ear syndrome any more poignantly than the non-Hispanic/Latino cadre of “We know what’s best for you” types, but we are open to suggestions.
Literally nadie in the Latino community uses the performative gender-neutral term to describe the cultural group. It’s an exclusive from the mostly White, mostly female, political wing.
Today’s Molière Citation is awarded to the non-Latino/Hispanic purveyors of grievance-mongering who have unsuccessfully tried to foist off this politically charged (but rejected by the very community it’s meant to inflame) term of futile outrage.
Congratulations to all the Karens out there — you know who you are!
BTW, we wonder why it is, if the VP is truly Black (culturally), that she never uses the “N word” like so many of her celebrity supporters do. When she puts on the fake “hood” drawl for certain audiences, why does she avoid speaking them in their own vernacular? Or does she just never listen to them in their own environment or on the stage?
There’s plenty of citation material to go around, but we’ll leave it with an invitation to join as a member and send us nominations for Citations and Celebrations!
PS — Another day, we’ll offer an explanation of the difference between Latino and Hispanic — and give thanks that nobody has tried to replace “Hispanic” with “Hispanix” (probably because it sounds too much like “PANIC” 🤯
