Instead of arguing from first principles and the origins of Emojis, we're arguing - "Just get used to it". This is, my friend, how we regress as a society as no one challenges the status-quo.
I was hoping you'd provide some objective reasons that my comment was lacking, but you did none of those. I am open to hear and listen. We don't broaden the perspective for flat earthers, right? If we did, we would regress.
If there is any glimmer of hope - it would turn Emojis like symbols in Japanese Kanji script. They'd become logographic characters that are universally recognized across all languages. But, we're far from that. It needs to be formally included in the language, dictionary and schools.
- benjaminjosephw 6y agoMy point is that _some_ users don't need to "just get used to it" at all since it's part of what they are already used to. I'm not trying to convince you that you're wrong, just that you're not representative of all users. Your arguments are heavily biased by your age/experience. Young people matter too, right?

- benjaminjosephw 6y agoReally not trying to dismiss your perspective. Just pointing out your bias. Your views aren't entirely objective and pointing that out isn't being judgemental. Sorry if it came across that way.
