Zimmerman was another leftist gaslighting thing.


The images used of Zimmerman showed one with him having lightened skin. Another with him in his natural skin color.


They hid his arrest picture which showed he clearly got the crap beaten out of him.

In the poor lad's defense, he was followed by a grown man who had a gun. Zimmerman needed to have been beaten much more severely, IMO. Permanent disfigurement. Still wouldn't make up for it but a high schooler beating a grown man that badly would at lest be satisfactory viewing it, years later.

Latinx people are classified as white. That is why demographic surveys often ask respondents to specify whether they are "white" or "white/not hispanic or latino."

Zimmerman is half-white and half-Latinx, so he would be considered white.

Nope

FYI, the correct term is "Latino" as it is already gender neutral when in contextual reference to all Latino people.

Language evolves. Get into it.

In the KMC Zimmerman thread, after initial confusion it was agreed upon that Zimmerman was a Latino (or part) with a Jewish last name.

Zimmerman's still a racist who racially profiled and stalked a Black kid despite the police telling him not too, picked a fight and then pulled his gun and murdered that kid like a true coward because he was getting his ass kicked. He's done a lot to prove he was just a racist playing out his murder revenge fantasies since then.

Why the Right likes to lionize this scumbag...

BrolyBlack
Not a fan of his so stop trying to put him in my ethnicity

I said he's a Latino (with a Jewish last name). You're not a Latino.

A fringe group of people forcing SJW-ness into language is not going to magically change 500 million Latino people using it.

Because race baiting.


Zimmermans race is immaterial. They wanted to leverage a racist caucasion vs black victim narrative.

Apparently, his surname is German, not Jewish. And his mother is of Peruvian descent. So half-white and half-Latinx, or just white for classification purposes.

Very true, though watching the SJW's cry is somewhat amusing.

Unlike English, Spanish is a gendered language. So a person of Latin descent is Latino if male, or Latina if female. Latinx is used when referring to someone whose gender is unknown, or a group of mixed genders. It is no different than alumnix/alumni/alumnae. Sorry you are such an uneducated fool that you do not understand how language works.

I do understand: anyone using latinx is gay

Latinx or Hispanic are not technically races. They are place-of-origin terms we came up with in America to differentiate us from the mostly spanish speaking populaces of South/Central America. They are listed as such on the census. Like America or Canada, they are diverse nations with people of various ethnic backgrounds. Internally, they refer to each other with the same racial classifications we use here.

You could be of European, African, Asian, or Native descent and be "hispanic." Zimmerman was called white because he was apparently mostly white by heritage. My immigrant friend tells me he was just called white growing up, and never even heard hispanic before moving here.

If you want a famous example, Shakira is white/lebanese despite being born in Colombia. Colombian is no more a race than American is.

Literally, the census definition of hispanic: "Hispanic origin can be viewed as the heritage, nationality, lineage, or country of birth of the person or the person’s parents or ancestors before arriving in the United States. People who identify as Hispanic, Latino, or Spanish may be any race."

No, in other words you're not an intelligent person.

Or you're an intelligent person who has decided on the worst hill to die upon.

"On December 4, 2019, Zimmerman sued the Martin family and others involved in the trial for $100 million on grounds of false evidence and abuse of process."

"In 2013, Zimmerman's estranged wife called 911 to report that Zimmerman had assaulted her father and was threatening her with a gun. Zimmerman wasn't charged over the incident. In November of that same year, Zimmerman was charged with felony aggravated assault after he allegedly pointed a shotgun at his girlfriend during a domestic violence incident. The case was later dropped. In January 2015, Zimmerman was again charged with domestic assault after allegedly throwing a wine bottle at a different girlfriend. Again the charges were later dropped."

Is this dude Jesus Christ come back to Earth? Because thats the only way he could get away with this shit.

By that logic, is Obama white?

No, you are an unintelligent person who has picked the worst hill to die on. You are broadcasting to the forum that you think gender-neutral nouns in gendered-languages did not exist before right-wing media told you to be triggered by it.

That depends on who is doing the classifying. But that is true of all racial categories.

Not too late. It still isn't a thing except insularly with a very tiny amount of people using it.

English is also a gendered language.
