White Liberals Nine Times More Likely to Use Term ‘Latinx’ Than Actual Hispanics
A new poll has found that white liberals are nine times more likely to use the term “Latinx” than actual Hispanics are.
The poll from Echelon Insights found that among registered American voters, just 3 percent expressed a preference for “Latinx,” including less than 1 percent of Hispanic voters, according to a report from the Washington Free Beacon.
Nine percent of white liberals said that “Latinx” was the appropriate term to use.
We asked all voters what the right term to use is to describe those of Spanish speaking heritage.
3% of registered voters said Latinx. ***Less than 1%*** of Hispanics did.
But 9% of white liberals and 7% of white college-educated Democrats said Latinx was the right term to use.
