Original Note:
Latin Americans (in and out of USA) have been polled multiple times on the usage of "latinx", and they have overwhelmingly agreed on disliking the term or considering it a slur, making the claim of "everyone saying “latinx is a slur” is a white boy" verifiably incorrect. https://news.gallup.com/opinion/polling-matters/388532/controversy-term-latinx-public-opinion-context.aspx https://www.pewresearch.org/hispanic/2020/08/11/about-one-in-four-u-s-hispanics-have-heard-of-latinx-but-just-3-use-it/ https://edition.cnn.com/2021/08/05/us/latinx-gallup-poll-preference-trnd/index.html https://ktla.com/news/nationworld/latinx-why-do-many-hispanics-hate-the-term/
