San Diego Comic-Con Mocked for Using Gender Neutral ‘Filipinx’ to Refer to Filipino People

First came “Latinx.” Now comes “Filipinx,” the woke left’s latest attempt to gender-neutralize an entire ethnicity. And just like “Latinx,” the new term is proving to be massively unpopular among the very people it refers to — in this case, Filipinos and Filipino-Americans.

San Diego Comic-Con is being widely ridiculed for using “Filipinx” in the title of its recent panel discussion “Filipinx Voices in Pop Culture,” which sought to explore “Filipinx influence behind your favorite media.”

The panel discussion, which took place Thursday at the Omni Hotel in San Diego, offered the following description:

“Filipinx/Filipinx-American influences can be found in every facet of pop culture. But have there been times when this culture has been pushed away from representation? Does the general population know how many Filipinx people are behind their favorite media?”

Comic-Con itself should be widely ridiculed.

My comment referred to what they did in San Diego not your pronunciation. Sorry for the confusion.

Gets about 100,000 people and sells out in like, 5 minutes. At least the Mystery Science Theatre 3000 panel one year later got put on one of their DVDs for us to see.

My US born, conservative filipina wife is an executive assistant to some county Gov wokeys. God help them if they pull this crap on her. She’ll go all Michelle Malkin on their dopey azzes!

Loser-Con. Probably the largest collection of basement dwelling losers you can see at one time.

In the East, those that dance to the beat of a different drummer are respectfully referred to as “Lady Boys”.

The ‘x” crap doesn’t flush anywhere but in the teacher’s lounge or Sweet Alex’s little head.

How is it not “cultural imperialism” (which the left abhors on some days of the week) to force a Germanic neuter gender on Romance languages like Spanish? You silly little brown people who only speak of two genders vill use Das Latinx or you vill be gepunished.

Democrats should now identify themselves as DemocratX. They must, or they’re racist homophobes!
