"Hispanic" is a term that the USA Census uses to describe White Latin people. It has zero currency to Latins outside USA, esp as an identitypic.twitter.com/2E3xu4nsE6

I don't think a lot of Latinx folks here even self identify as Hispanic. Almost always used by non-Latinx folks instead of Latino. Troll!

Thanks for this! I can see why - it's not a useful term. It's superficial and has a terrible history.

Thanks for bringing this to attention. Is it offputting to latin ppl to be called Hispanic?

Most Latins prefer their culture (national heritage/origin) or in some contexts "Latin" (outside Latin America) or Latinx (in USA).
