Why is israel-cool emoji a picture of Kamakawiwoʻole?
We had a struggle session about this. TLDR, the person in charge of the emojis doesn't want an emoji burning Israeli flag because it felt too close to a direct attack on the Star of David and Judaism in general.
Here's the original discussion https://hexbear.net/comment/4274344
I honestly don't think that there's anything wrong with burning flags of the entity, obviously, but it's fair enough to be uncomfortable about making it an emoji on a website where anyone can come and recontextualize it as they see fit. I would make a different choice if I was the one in charge of emojis, but if my grandmother had wheels she'd be a bicycle.
No idea sorry
