    It’s not that I disagree because there is some truth in the article, but to outright call them racist for a thing they just do passively is absurd.

    use the white emoji

    Researchers argue that white people may use fair-skinned emojis as a covert display of white supremacy

    use the yellow emoji

    Researchers argue that white people using racially neutral emojis may signal a lack of acknowledgement about white privilege

    use the black emoji

    Researchers argue that white people using black emojis is a symptom of neo-colonialism and ethnic appropriation; one academic described the usage as "literally slavery all over again with wh*tes using black bodies for their own leisure"

    don't use any emojis

    Researchers argue that white people who refuse to input any emojis in their text messages might be signalling allegiance to the Nazi Party of Germany, "Nazis didn't use emojis in any of their communications either" said one critic
