      The numbers are a BIT lower than I would have expected, but any one of us who have been going on about the MILES-WIDE gap between actual minority groups and the elite progressives who speak over them, or for them without their consent, could have predicted this. https://twitter.com/GiancarloSopo/status/1190292213487550466 …

      2/ I wrote about this in February. On all sorts of controversial issues, progressive elites claiming to hold views to protect or advance the interests of marginalized groups... disagree with the opinion of the majority of members of that grouphttps://jessesingal.substack.com/p/the-risk-of-progressives-talking …

      If you are a white person who uses "Latinx," how do you justify that now that the question has been asked and something like 98% of memebrs of this group do NOT prefer this word? Are there other instances in which you ignore how a group prefers to be spoken of to this extent?pic.twitter.com/9IssjXLdx2

          This isn't just culture-war BS -- it actually matters for politics. We have a situation where someone like Liz Warren becomes convinced by six-figure consultants that this is how she has to talk to shore up "the base," and then ends up talking in a way "the base" finds alienating

          This is a logical fallacy. 98% of respondents just prefer other words, they do not "not prefer" some other words, based on this poll.

          But the other words are pronounceable...

          This seems to be an incredibly common phenomenon. Within marginalized groups, certain minority opinions are elevated as the dominant opinion because they’re most useful or flattering to a predominantly white, wealthy, and straight—but very liberal!—media/intellectual class.

          I’m on your side here, but the generally used term is “Latinx” not “LatinX.” If I’m to take these results seriously, I’d like to make sure “Latinx” was polled and not the potentially confusing “LatinX.”

          Don't think it makes much of a difference because (1) Latinx is potentially confusing; and (2) the response rate for it is low because Hispanics have never heard of the word.
