Like how the vast majority of Hispanics hate the term Latinx
Well that one actually was equally stupid and hilarious. It's really not the same as American native people not wanting to be called Indians. Because you know....they're not from fucking India.
See above, when a tribe talks about the collective of tribes in the United States the correct term is American Indian. In Canada, they do use the term for their tribes as indigenous people. It's quite disrespectful to tell a tribe they have to call themselves something different because Progressives don't like the word Indian. Also keep in mind the term Indian predates the usage for the Republic of India as it's people called themselves Hindūstān until 1858.
