lack of disabled and neurodiverse representation in the categories as well as people from other marginalized backgrounds such as Indigenous, Latinx, South Asian, and many other communities

Yes, this is there goal. And if this is the case I don't know why they didn't just use the term "Latin."


It's because their brains don't function properly.

Not gonna lie. Pose is my favorite show of all time and I’m shocked they aren’t nominated all over the place just considering the current climate.

I think they deserved more nominations, but it’s a bit ridiculous the fans claiming the reason is sexism and transphobia. Hollywood practically trips over itself to virtue signal. Pose got snubbed to me, but it ain’t because of those reasons.

Does Latinx have a big enough microphone for this?

My guess is no.


You just wait until LULAC and La Raza start their sh*t.

Asians are white-adjacent so they don't count.

I have been patiently waiting.


kind of makes you think this shite is coordinated, huh? them just sitting back and waiting like good boys and girls


This reminds me of a frisbee dog show I saw at a halftime once.

I wasn't impressed by the dogs catching the frisbees because they live for that.

What was impressive was how in the line of dogs only the dog the trainer pointed to and called ran to catch the frisbee. The other uncalled dogs were like professional Latin activists at the moment, really trained.

Latinos (I refuse to say Latinx and oddly enough so do the vast majority of Latinos) and Muslims are yesterday’s news, black people are the new hotness.

Among woke white people. The vast majority (if I remember right it was something like 98%) of Latinos can’t stand it and see it as an insult to their culture.

Blacks are GREATLY over-represented in entertainment, while Hispanics and asians are greatly under-represented.

So now we are doing directional minorities?

20 years ago this would have been satire. It's hard to believe it's actually someone's reality.

He’s not the only one. They did a study a few months ago and 88% of Latinos stated that they preferred to not be referred to as Latinx and that they were perfectly fine “Latino” or “Latina.” Funny enough, the leading group that preferred to use the term latinx (by a large margin) was white women.

It’s the same with Native Americans and most of the sports mascots. A large majority of actual native Americans don’t care

What is "neurodiverse"? Is that a euphemism for dumb?
