My favorite part of #shutupgringo2020 is some of them telling latines what gringo actually means like...

You notice the audacity of trying to tell us how OUR language and slang "actually" works?
And it's also kinda funny how this group of ppl is actually doing exactly what the tag criticises.
Anyway, if you're confused:

Gringo is slang referred to north-americans (sometimes includes UK). It doesn't consider race, if you're from US, bam! You're a gringo.

It's not an offensive term and it could be used as a synonim of "American"
Now, is there pissed ppl using it so it sound "kinda meanie"?: Yes. Rightfully so tho.

Does it make it a slur?: Nope.

Is it racist?: Nope. I don't even get how some jumped to this conclusion anyway 🤷🏽‍♀️
Esto agarró más vuelo del que esperaba así que uh...

Mañana llevenle el carnet, lapiz azul, awa de uwu, pónganse bloqueador, su mascarilla favorita, un gorrito, lavense bien las manitos... y ya saen ya que le votamos en esta casa 👀💕
