that's extremely stupid

I would get it if it literally wasn't three seconds long, or if they did anything at all that implied that using the product caused the transition, but they didn't. i guess that they're saying hispanics are the cleanest of all peoples

i watched the video and can easily see how somebody would be pissed off at it because it's poorly thought out

even if something is accidentally racist it is still racist

it's a spanish term and there isn't a genderless equivalent. you're either a latino or a latina. "latino" was the de facto agender term for many years, as with most words, but now people are more woke so as noted "latinx" is gaining traction

In Spanish if your talking about more than one person they are Latino, individually Latino or Latina.

No love for your made-up things.
Latin@ is cute visually and if you make it rhyme with "quinoa" it's probably super offensive but I can't see pronouncing it any other way.

also it turns out furries are just a kink and we all needed perspective
