I'm a "leftist" and seldom use racial/genetic/ethnic descriptors when talking about some other person. I do, otoh, often refer to your kind as "Reichwingers." :laugh:

Happy New Year, Matt. Hope you all have a healthy and prosperous one to come.

Well, I for one won't fault you for that. If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen. So, from all us Reichwingers to all you commie pinko fags, Happy New Year! :awesome:

"Reichwinger" is a political descriptor. Those on the LW or RW are there by choice. We don't choose our genders, race, genetic makeup -- or that of our parents.

Yes, we have black people here. We have native people here. We have Hispanic, Asian, and mixed race people here. Are you going to bring up that myth that we chose to retire here because we don't want to be around diversity? Only a racist would believe that nonsense.

No, but UP people are generally pretty white, and black folk don't gravitate towards a woodsy lifestyle in the cold. True Story!

The non-white ppl generally live in or near Marquette, and work for the medical center or the university. We have two outstanding locally-owned Mexican restaurants that are owned and staffed by Hispanic folks. (There's also the yucky chain ones -- Taco Bell and Borders.) Then there are the Thai and Asian restaurants; they're owned by Asian folk. For a small town, we have 6-7 Asian places! It's not as diverse here as where we lived in STL was, but it's not lily-white either. That's one of the things I enjoy about returning to college; the student body is quite diverse.
 
For those who believe we as individuals, and America, should be woke then using the term LatinX would be appropriate.

As I understand it many in the Hispanic community do not like the term because it didn’t come about organically, rather it was forced upon them (by the woke).

I can't apeak for all Democrats or any Republicans,

but I very much believe in preserving proper grammar and usage in all languages.

Even though English is the second language for the vast majority of bilingual Americans
because too many of the predominantly English speaking ones are so fucking dense compared to most of the civilized world,
it still should matter to speak and write correctly.

Latinx isn't a word,nor does it need to be,
and "woke" as we define it today is an abomination.

And who gave them the authority to make up new words for people anyway?

I damn sure never voted on that.

Authority? Who is forcing you to use that word? Besides, don't minorities get to define terms for themselves? Or you don't want them to do that?

We have more definitions than we need in this world.

A proper Bostonian recognizes only two kinds of people.

There are those who agree with us on virtually everything,

and there are those whom we refer to---and I do admit this is unfortunate--
as "fuckin' retahds."


I love the new T-shirt my daughter bought me.

SURROUNDED BY STUNADS is emblazoned on the front.

"Stunad" is Italian-American slang for "stonato."

"Stonato" literally means "out of tune,"
but it's used that way about as often as "gay" is used to mean "merry.'

It's mostly used to mean, in Bostonese, "fuckin' retahd."

The great thing about the T-shirt is that

I can appropriaately wear it virtually anywhere.
