Classic American karen.

Ive had that with my whole hispanic self, I was talking in Spanish and said that some other hispanic called me mojado (wetback) because I was eating tortillas with my lunch (funny story, we all laughed) but this white chick popped out of nowhere and was like "I know what "mojado" means and that a rude thing to say." Lady, you only know one word of Spanish and its to virtue signal?

[-]

ChichCob@reddit

We don't use Hispanic anymore, it's racist and offensive. You have to use our progressive word, "latinx," and if you don't, you're basically a fascist. You really need to learn more about you're culture, sweaty.

[-]

8aller8ruh@reddit

It’s so ironic because all native spanish speakers despise that term as they have such a gendered language, the x is straight up disrespectful & not how they would have made it plural.

Anyone who uses Latinx is purely virtue signaling because if they had even a basic understanding of the Spanish language they would understand that Latino already includes everyone.

[-]

ChichCob@reddit

It's a progressive way of referring to Latin people. Because Spanish is a gendered language and since gender isn't real, it's offensive to LQBTQIA+ folx, so we have change the language that's been around for hundreds of years to make it more progressive to fit our values. I don't see the conflict between this position and other positions I hold. /s, if it wasn't clear

[-]

OcelotSlight7892@reddit

Im familiar with the term. This is a 4chan sub I was just joining in the fun.

[-]

appolzmeh@reddit

The best way I had it explained to me is that white women used to be a victim class but ever since they got the right to vote and work with men as equals they have been the most privileged class especially over the last couple decades. This leads to them constantly virtue signaling so they can feel as though they were victimized by the racism even though they have absolutely no room to talk given their position in society.

In normal context it means wet, but the 2nd-4th generation Hispanics call other Hispanics that crossed "mojados" for the same reason as "wetback".

[-]

LordHersiker@reddit

I am Spanish (as in from Spain) and the first time I heard the term "wetback" it was watching Sons of Anarchy, where the Mayans got called that on a regular basis. What's the origin of the term? I could never guess it through logic.

[-]

Steve_Conway@reddit

Mexicans crossing the Rio Grande River (that separates the US from Mexico), entering the US illegally.

Yo Hispanic bro, what's a funny insult or line I can say in Spanish that isn't racially charged, but would slightly piss off / ideally defuse tension with absurdist humor between teammates. I run into a fair share of South Americans who barely speak a word of English in my dota games, and I need something that'll simultaneously shit on them a bit but also get them on my side when I yell andale amigos as we charge into a fight together. Weird request sorry lol

"Pendejo" is always a good one lol it means dumbass with a think a higher sting but its something you would say to your friend for doing something stupid.

ender89@reddit

The problem is that generally black people never see a white person using it as innocent or without malice.

Just singing along with a song that uses the n-word can lead to problems, and consequencely songs which use the n-word can become flashpoints for racial tensions.

I say just stop using it, the best way to prevent it from being used as a racial slur is to see that it dies.

[-]

A_Stoned_Smurf@reddit

If people stop putting it in songs I'll stop saying it when I sing along. Can't stop my white ass.

KaiFireborn21@reddit

I'm not sure that it's a good idea to decide whether it's "fine" to say slurs depending on the person who said it. I don't know, I myself don't prefer to call myself by slurs against my race and sexuality... Why should it be fine if I'm the one saying it, it keeps the word alive and sparks unnecessary division

[-]

[-]

ender89@reddit

Controversial opinion: using the N-word while maintaining that it's a taboo for basically everyone else is the only reason the n-word is still a racially charged slur.

There are a metric fuck ton of racial slurs for black people that have faded away to the point that anyone using one sounds like they grew up in some kind of incest fueled hillbilly compound.

Let the n word die, let it be forgotten, let it fade away to the point where it no longer has power over our society.

Or change the meaning to be positive, which is sort of already a thing, but realistically there's a lot of ways that even black people use it as a slur and frankly I think it just needs to go.

[-]

CommercialSpray254@reddit

Yeah i can't see that happening in our generation. It's forbidden fruit af which makes people just want to say it more.

[-]

Vimanys@reddit

It is my belief that all of this focus on specific words was deliberately encouraged to avoid tackling actual inequalities in US society. I mean, really and truly, are people there ANY less racist since the furore over that specific word, and are African-Americans any less disadvantaged than they were before the big social justice crusade of the 2010s? As far as I can see, it's only made racists want to use the word more than they have since the 60s because of the added pearl-clutching.

The usual social compact is if there's something I can do that another person finds distressing and they ask me to stop, its usually polite to stop.

Foolish_Hepino@reddit

What she did in this (probably fake) greentext is going up to a minority and saying "Since I don't like this word, you, the person who by all rights should be allowed to use it, shouldn't use it".

She is absolutely allowed to be uncomfortable with it as a natural reaction since she's white and probably doesn't even hear the word much anyways. But to argue and double down agaisnt OP feels honestly racist and entitled.

The same way it feels entitled for someone who isn't queer, to shit on an LGBTQI+ person who uses the word "queer" for themselves (like what I'm doing here.)

If OP was calling someone else by the word, it'd a lot more understable, but he's calling himself that. Like come on.

She placed herself above his feelings, he didn't place himself above her feelings.

So not, it's not actually better if the races were flipped, and the situation here isn't what you're trying to imply.

[-]

Pikassassin@reddit

He isn't even calling himself that, he's describing someone else calling him that.

strawberry_semenade@reddit

This reminds me of an interview that some white guy did like 25 years ago with the creator of the Boondocks where he said "you really use the n-word a lot in your cartoon" and he basically said "well I hear that word all the time whether I want to or not, so if it makes you uncomfortable that's your problem".

I was telling a story to bunch of black coworkers and said the nword. I didn’t realize I had said it until I was about to the end of the story. I stopped and said shit sorry guys they responded with finish the story. Turns out if you use words in a non derogatory way people are way more lenient. Myself I think either it should be fine for everybody to say or nobody to say.
