in the comment section of the video you made once with the X and Latin X.

There was a man who commented,

for real's, that chick is annoying.

My mom would agree with him.

Very annoying.

So with my sister.

Okay, great. Hey listener, a quick favor. We are conducting an audience survey and we'd be really grateful

Thanks. Hey and welcome to conversations with people who hate me the show where I take negative online comments and turn them into starting points for offline conversations.

I'm your host, Dylan Merrin.

Today I'm moderating a conversation between two people who intersected online because of one word, Latin X.

For those of you who aren't familiar, no worries.

It's the gender-neutral alternative to the terms Latino and Latina, which is used to describe someone of Latin American origin.

Kat Lasso is a video maker who made a video called What's with the X in Latin X where she

essentially broke down why she thinks people should use the more inclusive term

rather than the gendered Latino or Latina when referring to a group of Latin American people and then

Alvaro commented beneath the video for reels that chick is annoying.

First I'll speak one-on-one to cat then I will chat with Alvaro and then I will connect them to each other
