Twitter Respawn post “Latinx” tournament
The Spanish speaking community has inclusive language they’ve developed, Respawn not taking that into consideration and using a term coined by English speakers feels slightly racist.
For inclusivity purposes the appropriate phrase is either “latine” or if you’re speaking English you can just say “latin” some others insist “latino” is already a gender neutral term.
Mistakes happen and that’s understandable but the way the social media team is handling that post is horrific.
Legitimate concerns and arguments are being “hidden” while people are using slurs and are being left up. Also completely innocent comments are being hidden?
There is a lot of non binary hate in that thread of course which I condemn with every fiber of my being but the way the social media team at Respawn is handling this is really disgusting as insulting.
