The thing about the Overton Window is that yes, it’s a way to make the formerly unacceptable (open borders in which millions of invaders enter the country with no recourse) seem acceptable, but it leads to backlashes that make the formerly unacceptable seem acceptable in the other direction.
While Latinos were never the militant open borders voters that white liberals liked to believe they were, the Biden administration has managed to get 42% of their great hope for a permanent minority majority to back building a wall.
42% of Latino adults surveyed said they support building a wall or fence along the entire U.S.–Mexico border. That’s a 12-point jump from December 2021.
38% support sending all undocumented immigrants in the U.S. back to their country of origin — up from 28% in 2021.
Latinos are apparently anti-Latino xenophobic racists. Who knew?
The media desperately scrambles to find the silver lining in the otherwise horrible numbers and discovers that…
Support for the border wall is lowest among Mexican immigrants and Mexican Americans (37%). Only 43% of Central Americans support the wall.
Only 43% As compared to the 42% overall average. It’s okay, math is hard. It’s really hard if you’re a leftist and believe that numbers are a construct invented by dead white slave owners.
But don’t worry folks, the Red Team has a plan to turn this around and win over Latinos.
“Latine,” a gender-neutral way to describe or refer to people with Latino origins, is surging in popularity on university campuses, in museums, and among researchers and media.
On university campuses… in museums… and among researchers and media! If this doesn’t win over Latinos, I’m sorry, Latinx, I’m sorry, Latines, which sounds unhelpfully like latrines, well at least it’ll win over researchers and the media, 0% of whom support building a wall except around Martha’s Vineyard.

I’m no language expert, but aren’t Romance Languages *SUPPOSED* to be gendered?

I suspect the number may be higher because some don’t like to answer that question honestly. Especially if Uncle is expected for Christmas and he sneaks across the border each year to visit (true story about a legal family and their uncle).
So, the left turned our country Spanish speaking and largely hispanic for nothing, At least I hope it was for nothing. At first, I was amazed at the ubiquitous Spanish language and the hispanic families – everywhere. But Ive become accustomed to it and them. I see hardworking, family-oriented people (of course, excepting gangs and traffickers). But, soon,I will have to press 5 for English.
What I’m worried about are the Jihadis. They always starving even when they’re quite chubby and you have to keep paying for the food they discard. They’re angry, kill people and then cry boo hoo.

First thing I thought when I saw “latine” was how close it was to “latrine” – can’t wait for Biden or the Kamala or aoc or any of the other leftwing nitwits to use “latrine”!! It will happen!!

“a gender-neutral way to describe or refer to people with Latino origins…”
Clearly this push for a new word is by white women who do not speak a foreign language. You can’t change an entire language by inventing one new word. Nouns are gendered in Spanish. Period. The end.

I understand that Caeser Chavez was also opposed to Illegal Immigration to and it also might surprise liberals that Gandi and the Dali Lama were very Pro-Gun
Martina Vaslovik says
Hardly surprising, they don’t want to see this country turned into what they fled.
