A million things are like that, people are profoundly stupid, it's only ever an issue if someone invests money to cut propaganda against it to make people hate it. "Unicode gives us a shared codepoint space for all languages in the world, a deeply anti American idea, it fundamentally contradicts the ethno nationalist ideal our country was founded upon!"

I'm inclined to agree. Even if people get worked up on the pregnant man emoji or whatever, it's not like anybody is forced to use any of it.
