Lol what? Where do you think English gets me out of its words.
Copoted? Are you kidding?
"Their" words? The term originated from LGBT AMERICAN Latinos. It's an English term because it originated in American by Americans Latino heritage. You need to stop gatekeeping basic words.
Ask about what kind of thing? If they don't like it that's totally fine. I really don't care one way or the other. It has 0 impact on me. But to say the word itself is racist and co-opted is also just stupid
What does this have to do with anything other than people can have preferences
