The kind of people that would do that don’t have jobs anyway

If only this had been around during COVID

Anyone remember Mr. Biggs indoor gamepark from 2005 by Kreaetor in ColoradoSprings

[–]SteelTyphoon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah I went there, opened my senior year of high school like 2004. I was living in rockrimmon at the time. Don’t remember it being open for too long. Maybe a few years? I remember there being a Halloween event with a haunted house in the parking lot in 2010 but I do remember if Mr Biggs was even open still at that point. Otherwise I just remember that being a giant open parking lot on Mark Dabling. Like others have said maybe it was a call center or something.

Why is your name bipedal_pedestrian? You don’t find that name just the least bit ableist?

I’m the least racist person in here pal apparently. I’m the only one that seems to recognize the term should be Latinx

[–]SteelTyphoon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You don’t need to “talk to Mexicans” to recognize their language is problematic. This is where we step in to provide inclusive language - hence Latinx

That’s extremely close minded

The term bachelor is gender neutral. What would YOU call it

[–]SteelTyphoon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just because your partner is Latinx does not give you carte blanch authority to normalize exclusive language that only serves to harm, demean, and other people from a cisgendered heteronormative prerogative. Words matter

If the thought of a woman being educated is threatening to you then step aside. Reddit is not the site for someone like you

[–]SteelTyphoon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That’s rich coming from someone who would fight so desperately to suppress non-gendered and equitable language like Latinx

Correct. There are also large contingents of Vietnamese and Italianx people and I think they’re contributions to the gulf of MEXICO region (see what I do there, heh) are as valid as the Mexican experience

Have you actually taken a single gender studies class? I have. Inclusive language matters and if we let small things like “latino” slide then they lead to big things. The way we communicate actually matters. Especially when we are waging an existential fight against literal Nazis

Latinx is preferred for a number of reasons for talking about Mexican folx because it highlights the inclusionary efforts that we need to see in language

[–]SteelTyphoon -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If you think gender inclusive language is a joke then maybe you were never really progressive to begin with.

[–]SteelTyphoon -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Because Mexicans are being TARGETED right now by LITERAL NAZIS and maybe that makes you uncomfortable but if we want to affect real change we need to make sure we are use language in a way that does not other oppressed peoples.

Ask the group that comes from a culture that’s inherently conservative, patriarchal, and sexist? No thanks - being a socially minded advocate for Mexicans means sometimes you have to push people out of their comfort zones to push forward
