> Fuck the Unicode Consortium for accepting Google Gender Equality Emoji
> that should fix all gender issues
Fuck emojis, fuck unicode emoji characters, and fuck the Unicode Consortium for going outside the scope of their charter and fucking things up even worse.
They have no respect for how difficult utf-8 has already made text filtration while allowing native speakers to legibly convey their languages without triggering spam filters, and that if all they are doing is adding more fucking emojis, then their job is done and they can move to a 5-10 year cycle between meetings, and formally disband if another PRODUCTIVE use of the consortium doesn't happen before that time. We need to get rid of these trade groups that stop existing to provide a solution and start existing just to exist.
> Google is a fucking search company.
>And I'm all for gender equality, but this shit is seriously turning to some Jim Jones level shit and people need to get some fucking perspective. Go volunteer at a homeless shelter, christ.

I use jap emojis on my cellphone too
it's interesting how they look elaborate and simple at the same time while being able to be specific with the emotion they're trying to convey
also, people find them cute and since I'm the only one that does it it's kind of like my trademark

I find it funny that the entire point of smileys and even early emojis was that they were neutral in every way.
No race, gender or religion can be attached to them because they're too primitive.
So our brave SJW heroes decide that the real problem is that this is too egalitarian, that you must inject race and religion into yellow dots, making everything more and more realistic until a simple emoji needs to specify a race, gender and haircut before you can use it.
Another feminist success story.

What makes you angry about this exactly ?
>>81113603
dude, i knew that unicode was shit 10 years ago, because they included stupid "african" stick sign languages that were invented by french academics.
I only use ASCII, and in some rare cases, ANSI

I've been out of the weaboo phase for years but some stuff never goes away like knowing expressions and kana. Good party trick
