Original Note:
Hispanics and Latin Americans have overwhelmingly rejected terms like "Latinx." 3-4% of those polled actually use the term, with 90% finding it offensive. 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://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-texas/houston/article/Over-90-of-Hispanics-and-Latinos-don-t-like-to-15899232.php https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2023/09/05/who-is-hispanic/ The Axios poll states that 41% of those polled were "comfortable with Latine." The term is not surging in popularity.
