Gimenez scolded Biden, saying \u201ckeep your wokeness out of our language.\u201d This comes as Biden claimed Latinx Americans are afraid of getting vaccinated due to a fear of deportation.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Never mind the racist undertones in implying all Latinos are undocumented, using the term \u201cLatinx\u201d is the stupidest thing I\u2019ve ever heard.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s insulting to our culture to try and restructure an entire language to fit your politics.
