I find “Latinx” to be so unbelievably stupid because the English “x” sound doesn’t exist in Spanish. Rather than using the gender neutral form “latine”, some moron decided we should start injecting Anglo idioms into the Spanish language

Latinx is used almost exclusively by English speakers. One doesn't have to actually speak Spanish fluently to identify as Latino or Latinx in the US.
