@Pervertor@mstdn.io @espectalll So are you saying that it will basically encourage people to be even more tribalistic and instead of uniting people, it will encourage segregation in more and more groups?

I could see that happen. My personal issue is that I just see emojis in general as a silly idea. I barely use maybe a dozen of them, and it's really annoying that so much time is wasted on this. I'm sure there are other stuff the Unicode consortium could focus their efforts on instead.
