Ah, folk (or folks) that would make sense. I thought that was always a non-gendered term but I'd better not question it.

- DiggyJohnson 4y agoFolks is non-gendered, that’s why the “folx” terminology is seen as pandering / virtue signaling / etc. by many, many people. Re: Latinx.
- TchoBeer 4y agoI'm pretty sure it's just a fun way to spell folks

- liamN 4y agoI agree that folx doesnt make sense as a nongendered term, but Latinx is used because Latino/Latina IS (traditionally) gendered.
- d1str0 4y agoEven though Latinos don’t like the term because it’s whitewashing their culture.
- chihuahua 4y ago"folks" is non-gendered, but it does not have the virtual signaling properties of "folx" which is all about increasing inclusivity to heights that were previously unheard of.
