    "Liberals" might include me, although I have never understood the term and don't use it. Maybe if I were younger it might have registered, with an older me later saying, "The term seems kinda dumb, why not just 'Latino'?"

    "Woke." There's the word I wanted.

    The term was first seen online around 2004. It has later been used in social media by activists, students, and academics who seek to advocate for individuals living on the borderlines of gender identity. Surveys of Hispanic and Latino Americans have found that most prefer other terms such as Hispanic and Latina/Latino to describe themselves, and that only 2 to 3 percent use Latinx.[1][2]

    For f***'s sake. THEY say Latino and Latina. Latinx is a bit much.

    I was not sure of that, but it did occur to me.

    Chuck Rocha who's worked with Bernie has pretty good insights on the breakdowns. Biden should have brought him into the fold. He's been a guest on several podcasts if you're curious. Just google as I don't recall off the top of my head.

    As far as the X goes, I hate it. It's unnecessary BS and completely indulgent IMO. Queer politics in general is mostly silly to me and I don't see what the benefits are as it turns a lot of people off.

    Ah, the disinformation? What else is new. 70% of Trump's supporters think the election was stolen from him. No matter the race.

    Yeah but in that community it's much easier to micro target especially when you have the community paper radio and leaders onboard.

    They had a freaking insert into the community paper for weeks on end.
