> Emoji segregation feels off and backwards.

Please explain in what way does segregation have anything to do with emojis?

Specific coloured emoji for people with a specific skin colour. Six thumbs up under a post about apple pie in the lounge now turns into five thumbs up in colour A and one in colour B. Suddenly the colour you pick, or don't pick in case of LEGO yellow, is a political statement. I can do without all that.

		It's really only political if you think it is. Otherwise it's just people reacting with thumbs up. I've never once thought of it as anything else - and I've never seen it cause any sort of division. The idea that it could is absurd to me.
