Just realized that the reason I love making friends on tumblr is because it’s exactly how you make friends on the playground as a six year old. No, I don’t know their name but they love mermaids too and built this awesome sand castle. No, I don’t know their age but their imaginary cheetah is friends with mine. You like this show? You like this character?? You can sing the theme song really loud??? Here is a flower crown. Here is a juice box. You can share my time and I might never see you again but part of you stays in my soul forever. In my mind we’re still on the swing set and the sky is blue and nothing will ever be wrong again.

My longhouse is perfectly constructed. Every morning when I wake up in bed at the far end of my longhouse, I say my syllable. Then I spend all day sitting in bed. By sunset my syllable has traveled to the other end of my longhouse and back, and as it smacks me in the head, I fall asleep. My longhouse is perfectly constructed.

Let's criticize Disney and their awful decisions, one of my favorite activities.

Apparently they are working on a new animated show called "Primos" based on a latinoamerican household. However, they had no idea what they are doing and when people call them out, they are playing the "you don't understand" "it isn't that bad card".

One of the main issues is that they are using Spanish phrases that are grammatically incorrect. If this was a person speaking Spanish in the show, then it wouldn't be that bad because you could understand that it is learning the language, but they are using it in the slogan and main intro of the series. If you are going to use a phrase in another language as your slogan, at least be sure that is correct. Someone mentioned this to the main voice actress of the show, it should had been mentioned to the official page instead and the actress could had perfectly ignore it. But no, the actress choose to call that person a grammar n*zi and say that Spanish is a conqueror language. WTF?? And that is the person you choose to voice the main character?

There are more issues like the name of the kids - specially one named as the slang for p*ssy, which I found incredibly weird that they decided to use this word for a children name. The city is named Terremoto (Earthquake), a natural disaster that had caused hundreds of deaths in Latina American countries.

They started promoting the show as a latinoamerican household, and then changed as Mexican household when people told them Latina America was more than Mexico.

And one of my main issues is the awful design of characters with curly hair and brownish skin compared with characters with light skin. I mean, look at this:

Is as if they decided to do everything wrong on purpose.

I found out about this new Disney series "Primos" thanks to my latin neighbors being angry about it on social media. I watched the opening thinking "It can't be that bad"… let just say that it doesn't surprise me that it has a non latino person as the main producer.

The opening song already is making mistakes with the spanish. "Oye, primoS" Is simply not correct. Is a common mistake for english speakers maybe, but for us that expression doesn't even exist.

The vibes reeks of someone non latino trying to imitate latino culture.

... If I had a nickle everytime a gringo tries to create Mexican (Bc ofc mexican, we all know Mexico is the only contry in latinoamercia) vibe by using a yellow filter.......

I just want to know... what the hell everyone was thinking while making this fucking, stupid cartoon, 'cause I've rarely seen something so racist and disgusting.

Like, seriously?

Nacho?

CUQUITA?? (latino slang for pussy)

GORDITA??? (fat/chubby girl)

TERREMOTO HEIGHTS??????

It's like calling some American City "9/11 hills" or "School Shooting City"

And Oh Lord what. The. Fuck. Is. This. Design.

[pancake555-and-coff3]

you lost me at "oye primos"

i mean, it doesn't need to relate to the quality of the series but if they didn't hire someone who understands basic Spanish then let me doubt

[pancake555-and-coff3]

I know at this point my mutuals are like "Sol. Stop. You are talking to the wall here" And I want them to know that Im aware of that... But im just to angry.

The "Primos" leading voice actress not only called the latinos that corrected her spanish "grammar na/zis", but now she also downgrade our language and then call it conquistador language. Honey, you are making a series based in the latino experiences to profit off of it and at the same time you are saying all this shit? While speaking english??? Do you really want to go there???

If you didn't learn spanish that's okay, but you don't have the right to take the spanish away from us calling it the "conquistador language" just bc you dont speak it. Our spanish, the one that has been "mutating" for hundreds of years, is ours. Is our culture. My spanish is not the same spanish that someone who lives in another part of my country has. Argentinian spanish is different than mexican or peruvian or bolivian, etc. Because we made it ours.

If you cant see that then what are you even doing creating a series about latino experience.
