    It's been talked about, mods don't want a burning star of David.

    I agree with you though.

      Pure cowardice. We have several emojis of flags burning that have a cross on them. So clearly we're okay with burning religious symbols. Are we just afraid of being called antisemites? Zionists are going to call us that anyway.

        Japanese flag could also be considered a religious symbol

        edit: furthermore, something else that has annoyed me but maybe someone can explain: why do we have a Philippines burning flag emoji? They have an ongoing communist insurgency - surely this would be the place where we do something like we've done with India and have (unfortunately) done with Israel and find another flag/group to direct our hate towards?

          We have a Russia burning flag despite them being on the forefront of the anti-imperialist front and allied to AES. It’s pathetic that we have that and not the genocidal settler state of Israel. Pitiful

      Acceptance of Zionist narratives conflating Israel with Judaism. Pathetic. Every real resistance member burns Zionist flags without issue
