    I don’t think emojis should be the place to have a socio-political discussion.

    have some entirely non-political emojis:

    🗳️: BALLOT BOX WITH BALLOT

    🇹🇼: FLAG: TAIWAN

    🇵🇸: FLAG: PALESTINIAN TERRITORIES

    🗽: STATUE OF LIBERTY

    🤡: FACE OF “NON-POLITICAL” PERSON

      Good for you. I never said I’m “non-political.” That’s a red herring, but just to be clear: did you miss the part where I said that emojis should represent what people think or talk about? All those examples you put are exactly what I meant. And did you miss the part in which I mentioned Christianity? Because if you think that Christianity is a non-political thing today, then I got news for you.

      BACK to the fucking discussion: You’re proving my point that the emoji bitcoin should then be included. Because a large group of people talk about it, in pro- or against.
