    I've read some stuff to the contrary and my Hispanic friends who don't like and think it's patronizing are definitely not reactionary, but granted this is all anecdotal. If somebody who identifies as Latinx wants to be called Latinx, then yeah that's what I'll call them. Ultimately it's not my place to say one way or another since I'm not part of the community, I just want to push back about those outside of the community so readily adopting the term.

      I'll have you know that Hispanic is in no way a replacement of Latine/Latinx/Latino. Brazilian people are also Latine and not included by the term Hispanic.
