I thought the United States was a single country? They already have the red, white, and blue American flag, so why does each state have its own flag? I know I'm pages late but I liked the analogy so I had to
Or perhaps it was the fixation on my original post -- which was really quite tame -- that escalated the situation to make it seem like I'm fixating on it more than I really am?
holy fuck this thread is so bad
I'm glad I hold such a special place in your heart <3
Honestly you guys give me a hard time(deservedly) sometimes for my failures but I think you might want to look at how you treat each other too
The world is burning up, every country wants to nuke each other, CoD games are still being made, and here we all are fighting over a fuckin' emoji lol.
No worries, you are late in more ways than you think But to return to my post; The thing that made me go "Hmm, that's weird, I did not expect that" isn't the fact that they have a special flag for Transsexuals to begin with, but that they wish to get it approved independently from the others. If they were going to implement I would've expected them to do it under the name of LGBT and try to get all sexuality flags approved at once, or at least the most populated groups within LGBT. (I assume the biggest are Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Trans). I would imagine that they would also be able to exert more pressure if they went that route. I used to think that the LGBT movement worked together to tackle all issues regarding whichever inner movement as a whole. So I really didn't expect all those Sexuality Factions to operate so independently. To return to our state/country comparison. I would compare them more to countries like for example Spain, France, Germany and Sweden. They are represented under the same EU flag, but they couldn't be more different and independent form another.
Why ruin something that represents a tasty meal?
Ruin?
i guess he just doesn't like lobster
For education sake, these were added to unicode in version 6 (October 2010). This was the first version that added Emoji to the encoding. Which puts them square in the category as these exist because Japan already had them in use. Some private use ranges within Shift_JIS (japan's specific encoding) were used for these when using NTT DoCoMo service. With their widespread use around the country, Unicode adopted emoji so japan could still use them inside unicode. TL;DR, unicode didn't add this because they decided to. They already existed when they decided to support emoji in the first place
Its to identify which camp you're part of. Like someone said before, it allows tweets to use the emoji to increase awareness to trans related events/gatherings.
yo dude can I borrow some of these, thanks.
It's a symbol of oppression.
please tell me you're serious, I need to hear this shit
The rainbow flag is originally a symbol of gay peoples. The gay community is ultimately regressive and actually hostile to the goals of trans people. This is why the G needs to be dropped from LBGT as well.
Isn't that the sole purpose of a hashtag? They even have hashflags to give them icons
trans person here. I do not agree with this at all. Also, I'm a flag nerd and the rainbow flag is an amazing design so
it's seano. he's trolling
It's seano, he's legitimately stupid enough that he might actually believe the bullshit he's spewing too. It's kinda hard to tell with him sometimes.
It's seano, he's mad there's no fucking your sister flag.
This isn't a good look for you tbh And yet you took the effort to respond to it?
Both, trolling is fucking dumb. Especially to the extent he's doing it
If people want to know why this is a big deal, well, there's eight pages of discussion and awareness of transgendered people here.
his IQ is so high it overflowed and went to 0
🤔 how did you manage to come to this conclusion? i genuinely want to know was there a line of logic?
The gay community can be shitty to trans people sometimes, but it's not a fundamental issue with the community like seano makes it out to be. Gay people are still some of the strongest allies the trans community has.
