    i see latin mostly refering to the use of a latin language, since latinos have included haiti, however its not perfect since it not includes the guyanas and sometime involves quebec too

      I've never heard Haitians be referred to as Latino/Latinx. Dominicans, yes, and it's the same island. But not Haitians. I've always heard them be considered "carribean".

      Yes, they would technically be a part of Latin America and therefore Latinx by the logic given. But the fact that they don't seem to be, at least in America, is why I feel like the word Latinx isn't functionally different than the word Hispanic.

      Take that back.

          I think that if I heard a Quebecois call themselves "latinx" I would be legally required to spit on their face.
