Biden Slammed For Using ‘Offensive’ Term For Latinos, Suggesting Latinos Are Illegal Aliens, Mixing Up Tuskegee Airmen

President Joe Biden faced backlash on Thursday for using a term for Latinos that some consider offensive, suggesting that Latinos are illegal aliens, and for mixing up the Tuskegee Airmen with the Tuskegee Syphilis Study.

“There’s a reason why it’s been harder to get African Americans initially to get vaccinated because they’re used to being experimented on, the Tuskegee Airmen and others,” Biden said. “People have memories. People have long memories.”

As explained by the National Park Service, the Tuskegee Airmen and the Tuskegee Syphilis Study are two entirely separate things and are not related.

“It’s awful hard as well to get latinx vaccinated as well,” Biden continued. “Why? They’re worried that they’ll be vaccinated and deported.”

Biden faced backlash online for his remarks about Latinos as only 3% of Latinos use the woke term “latinx.”

We should actually deport anyone who uses “Latinx” unironically. https://t.co/W7PUULzV3M

Continuing the soft bigotry… just like his view that voter ID requirements are bigoted b/c minorities aren’t capable of getting government-issued IDs… https://t.co/0QyH8USrpk

Someone should point out to Joe Biden that 97% of Hispanics do not identify as “Latinx.” https://t.co/8ygdJwssDT pic.twitter.com/H7NOv0NgVm

How bad is it to combine a pander hated by almost all – Latinx
&
A racist assumption all Latinxeses

Imagine the five-alarm dudgeon and A-block segments on Univision and Telemundo were Donald John Trump to suggest that vaccine hesitancy among Hispanics is directly attributable to fear of deportation pic.twitter.com/AEvK3TWrB8

Joe Biden sees brown skin and immediately thinks illegal. Yes, he is that racist.

I’m not sure what’s worse here, that Joe Biden unironically uses the term “LatinX,” or that Joe Biden thinks all Latin Americans are illegal aliens https://t.co/JuHCMuNVCk

In one sentence, Biden managed accuse every Latin person in America of being illegal while labeling them with a word they hate. What a perfect disaster this guy is. https://t.co/re8rSb2aPF

I find the word Latinx highly offensive and disrespectful to our beautiful rich in history Spanish / Castellano language.

— Francisco (@friscobenz) June 24, 2021

As a Latino the use of the term Latinx is offensive and pejorative to me.
