Wealthy elites: "Ummmm I changed an emoji, isn't that badass?π€"
Personally I liked the alien laser pistol that Microsoft had the best, bring that one back.
what the hell was Google thinking in 2013 making it an old-timey blunderbuss lmao
They were correctly thinking that pirates are awesome.
y'know what you're right π΄ββ οΈπ¦
retvrn to blunderbuss, it definitely better than the super-soaker they changed to for some reason
I think it's solid. Gets the point across without taking itself too seriously.
The alien gun and flintlock are great
Good?
You should be able to use gun emoji for actionable threats.
this is X we're talking about so you can imagine which kinds of threats will be permitted and which ones won't
I genuinely support this
I don't have strong feelings either way, the water pistol is a bit silly but this particular decision was made as an anti-woke measure by fascist tech bros who just wanna point the gun emoji at the pride flag again
curiously this chud says the emoji was "returned back into its rightful form: an m1911" when it never was an M1911 in the first place, it used to be a revolver
1911 is the chuddiest of pistols lol
yeah of course they went with the epic US imperialism gun instead of the more comical wild west revolver that it was before
(yeah ok wild west guns are also US imperialism guns but still)
Yeah, making it a water gun was some over sensitive shit. And itβs just completely out of spec as Unicode intends for it to be a hand gun.
Apple just decided they didnβt like that emoji and substituted their own. Apparently they later pressured Unicode not to add a rifle emoji.
Rifle emoji would have gone crazy lmao
Thread over whether the rifle emoji should be an AR or AK locked down by moderators after 69,420 pages of heated debate
I remember when every company changed the emotes to the water gun. Everyone made fun of them.
Guns should be treated the same way cigarettes are. If you want to reduce their use, you must make them uncool. Branding, packaging and the like should all be disallowed. Advertising should be disallowed. They shouldn't be in the emojis. Their form should also be limited so that "tacticool" shit is effectively disallowed and guns get treated more like a tool.
Essentially do the same shit we did to smoking.
leftists should have guns and gun emojis while chuds should have water pistols and water pistol emojis
The solution is gun emoji should have a hamsic
any discourse over this is so deeply silly lol
yeah it's not that serious but I do find our modern hieroglyphics somewhat fascinating
I recently read that that's not how hieroglyphs worked

Finally a good change
I trust groypers with firearms.
I thought it was a zapp brannigan sci fi gun, not a water pistol, lol
"Kif, I've acquired Twitter. Alert the men."
I can hear it in my head
The emoji on their article displayed as a revolver. Also lol at m1911 boomer ass museum gun.
Bring back the j-frame!
Add the rifle emoji and have it be a 30-30!
