Try and educate yourself. Latinx is used to break down gender boundaries in language. If you can think of a better way of decolonising language than demanding that all languages adhere to the non-gendered approach adopted in English then I’d sure like to hear it.

The general term for persons of Hispanic origin is Latino. Get on the helicopter, we have something to show you, comrade.

decolonising language

Mexicans and South Americans originally spoke hundreds of different languages...the Spanish colonizers forced them to speak Spanish and Portuguese, and still do so today

"Decolonizing" is another word I've become immune to. Means nothing to me.

Whites colonizing the dusky heathen brought more long-term benefits than short-term problems. It's not as if the natives weren't enslaving and raping each other already.

One language to unite a country is better, of course, but that language should be German, and it should be global.

I don't know what the fuck decolonizing language means. But im pretty sure language just be how it be. It just grows like that.

Faggots that think like this dont understand the laws of nature.

I don’t really know what it means either, but I presume it would be the opposite of Spaniards having to adopt to English linguistic rules just because English speakers are more dominant globally than Spanish speakers. I sometimes forget this site is full of autists who usually miss subtlety though.

English is a superior language and English speakers a superior people.

We think as we speak meaning language matters far more than simple communication. Languages effect how we can think.

English is the defa to human language. The language of science maths and the internet.

You know English is a language that uses words from Spanish, French, German and other languages right?

It is literally the least "colonized" language there is.

Intentionally changing the meaning of nearly all commonly used words in high-emotion arguments between strangers.

Low-level sliding of the meaning of words through bad education and allowing niggers their "ebonics" destruction of higher languages that they simply cannot understand.

Lowering language requirements for jobs.

Lowering language requirements for graduation.

Lowering language studies to a mere apery of what it once was. For example, my spell check, something that is a machine with near-infinite patience and data storage, didn't know what apery was.
