Daily Stormer The Most Censored Publication in History
Okay, that’s it.
I’m exclusively using black emojis from now on.
Plus the Indian guy in the turban.
No more yellow for me.

Washington-based National Public Radio was ridiculed on Wednesday after it published an article which analyzed what skin color emojis were ethical for various races to use.
The article, titled, ‘Which skin color emoji should you use? The answer can be more complex than you think’, featured interviews with people of various races who discussed the racial justice components of cartoon emojis and whether it is OK for white people to use dark-skinned or ‘neutral’ yellow characters.
Some white people may choose 👍 because it feels neutral — but some academics argue opting out of 👍🏻 signals a lack of awareness about white privilege, akin to society associating whiteness with being raceless.https://t.co/9g3rochT0K

“Some white people may choose [the yellow thumbs up emoji] because it feels neutral – but some academics argue opting out of [the white thumbs up emoji] signals a lack of awareness about white privilege, akin to society associating whiteness with being raceless,” the NPR article stated.
It was noted in the piece, however, that some white people purposely use dark-skinned emojis in overwhelmingly white spaces to “even the playing field.”
The article was quickly ridiculed online, with critics mocking the amount of effort the three reporters who contributed to the piece supposedly put into it.

Conservative commentator Lauren Chen wrote, “Measuring ‘privilege’ through emoji usage is the most privileged thing I’ve ever heard.”
“So important we fund this work with our tax dollars. Thank you NPR,” former New York Times tech reporter Nellie Bowles said.
If the blacks want to stop me from using black emojis, they’re gonna have to kill me.
Come at me.
The BBC was doing this years ago
