The legacy of the Roman empire ladies in gentlemen, not architecture or aqueducts or even the republic that we still use today, no it's offending snowflakes.
In Indonesia to this day we use the word "negro" as a term for black people of African (and black Americans/European), but it's not applicable to black Melanesian and other Asian (for them we just use the name of tribes)
In America It’s all an absurdity wrapped in victimization. The rest of the world could give 2 fu)$s Tell the 70% of slaves that went to places other than the US their ancestors could have come here and they’d be like “damn I don’t have to cross In illegally?”
Dumb folks like these will go ballistic the day they learn how to say 'You' in Korean. I hope Korean folks will just tell them to fuck off when that day comes.
For a while in spanish speaking countries someone would post a picture in Facebook of a black hewlet Packard laptop with the text "name the brand and color for a surprise!"
I'm old. In rural Missouri in 1970 you weren't supposed to call black people, black, but negro. In this area the older blacks thought it meant "darker and more African."
"In an effort to fight racism, we demand that close to 8% of the global population (doesn't seem impressive but that's a lot) alter the way they speak their language (many of those individuals being "people of color" themselves)!"
In fairness the word black in English originally refer to the color as well and had no previously existing racial connotation. Even the Almighty N-word is really just adapted from the older Spanish word for black by ignorant appropriating southerners. Specifically to serve as a distinction between “black” when used in reference to the color vs “Spanish black” when referring to people of darker hue! Ask a Spanish person, their often confused by the power behind that word in America.
Yes, you’re not black, don’t say the word white slave owners used to call us that means “ignorant” because we weren’t allowed to read or write, only we, black people, can call ourselves “ignorant” now. “Ignorant” is now OUR word, to call each other, as a term of endearment

Every few months Twitter discovers the existence of Montenegro and throw a fit
Monteafrican American
Monte-✊🏾
[удалено]
Monte of color
Lmao wow, what arrogance
Ignorance works too*
Also, you need to change your native language to use "Latinx" instead of "Latino/Latina" because I, a native English speaker, am offended.
Change your culture and language to fit my delusions!
Those damn Romans and their Latin language offending morons 2000 years later...
The legacy of the Roman empire ladies in gentlemen, not architecture or aqueducts or even the republic that we still use today, no it's offending snowflakes.
‘It was wrong then, and it’s wrong now’
White liberals colonizing languages of color!
So the word negro which meant the color black before it was a racial descriptor is offensive?
It’s always college age white/black liberals who have no Latino in them thinking they know what’s best by telling Spanish speakers what to say. 🙄🙄
Let's ban all the words in other languages that sound "offensive" in English. /s
Every few years people discover the word Niggardly as well and have conniptions.
I fear the day they read a dictionary.
In Indonesia to this day we use the word "negro" as a term for black people of African (and black Americans/European), but it's not applicable to black Melanesian and other Asian (for them we just use the name of tribes)
Sounds like you’ve internalized white supremacy /s
Really? You, as well‽
"How would you like your coffee sir?"......"uhhhh...whatever color tires are I guess"

Ban socially? Yeah sure.
Can we use blk they way they use yt?
Same people that can’t separate race from government when discussing China or the origin of the Wuhan Flu
Go to those countries and try to tell them not to use it. Good luck telling them it offends.
Fucking idiots
brilliant. wearing emotionally driven ignorance like a badge
These people vote and are in juries
Speaking Spanish is now racist…..
I had some drunk frat boy try and start shit at me because I ordered Modelo Negro too loudly I guess. It's literally the best Mexican beer BTW!

Same stuff happens saying "You", "Me", or "I" in Korean.
Dumb folks like these will go ballistic the day they learn how to say 'You' in Korean. I hope Korean folks will just tell them to fuck off when that day comes.
low IQ is an epidemic
This is actual cultural appropriation. Taking another language's word and making it about him.
Negrx
Obviously none of those posters speak Spanish. It is pronounced with a long a, not an e. It’s nay-gro.
Not in Cabo…it’s neh gro. Deal With it or eff off as far as I care.
Should probably tell the French people to stop saying seal too
They just get off on telling people what they can and can't do at this point.
How do you say “blow me” in Spanish?
Me tocas la flaunta. Me sacas el chicloso. Chupaso mi vida no me dejes asi. Es sierto que si la chupas escupe?
Stupid.

People really need to grow up.
This is what people are doing with their lives 😂 Mad about a f**king word for what?😭

What does the HP stand for in Spanish slang? Something pinche? Puta?
Meanwhile, in Spain
Wait until they meet a black Hispanic person…
Negro humor going on I see....
Grow thicker skin, you Checkmark-addicted Children.
Its only the most close minded racists that are fuming when they realize their ultra narrow worldview does not apply to everyone.
Is Negro now a bad word?

Stranger things have happened.
Imagine actually trying to follow this rule and never using the word “black” again in your native language.
Wait until they discover the name of a famous river and mistake it for an offensive term because of poor comprehension.
the fragility
It's pronounced differently
Mexicans speak spanish. Mexicans are a minority (because reasons). Isn't this oppressing a minority group?
Negronis cancelled in 3 2 1…
