    If that’s being a bougie hipster then 99% of the population is a bougie hispter. That can’t be the case so I’m by definition not a bougie hipster.

    OH MY GOD WHICH PART OF LATINAMERICA BEING CONSERVATIVE AS SHIT, SO MUCH SO THAT IT NEEDS THIS STRUGGLE SESSION DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND. Uggh, I hope you're just a confused kid. Just, please, this is not liberal white americans just brainwashing us because we're too dumb and helpless to have social issues of our own.

    Also I’m LGBT and I have LGBT friends, and they don’t use this language either. Enbies might, but I don’t know any.

    I'm LGBT, being LGBT doesn't make you incapable of being insensitive or a bigot. Just ask the LGB terfs.

          I'm just saying I don't really appreciate the fact that you apparently think you get to be a dick and hurl abuse at me as much as you want and I just have to sit here and take it cuz i don't like a fucking word, and it's making me consider terminating this convo prematurely unless you get your shit together.

            You started by putting up a poll of US latinx saying they don't use that word, which means very little. If you don't like that word, that's fine, but if you care about queer people, nb people who don't want to be forced into linguistic binaries (which is part of being a good socialist) you respect that first, maybe discuss it with them if it's good for the both of you, but to act like this is some sort of anglo conspiracy is ridiculous. You should know better than anyone how oppresively conservative our latinamerican countries can be and how that can seep into us, even if we can't see it.
