New unwarranted term Latine is ‘rightfully being mocked’: Adam Coleman

A new word has been created to describe gender-neutral Latino people. The previous word that was made to describe the gender-neutral Latino community was Latinx, and it has now been changed to Latine. Author of Black Victim to Black Victor and the founder of Wrong Speak Publishing, Adam Coleman, discusses whether the term will become popular. “Thee big problem that the media has is that they have an elitist problem and an ideology problem, and often those two things mix,” Mr Coleman told Sky News Australia. “So, what we’re seeing here is that the media pushing something that adheres to the ideology – makes the non-conforming, gender non-conforming people feel comfortable, when in reality it makes 99 per cent of the population squirm,” Mr Coleman said. “This is ridiculous – it’s absurd, and nobody asked for it except for the ideologues, so this is rightfully being mocked."
