I may use it a bit too much, though I tried to justify its use to myself by way of /pol/'s own delusions of master race supremacy, "alpha/sigma" status, and general active bullying and stalking of people they hate as fascists tend to do.
I was legit pondering that emote a few days ago, like I get it, we all know guys like that but they should be dunked on for their opinions and politics not because they look like the Virgin Incel caricature
Edit: like that picture is of a dude, of a person, and I guess we think it's okay
I think that one's fine because everything about this individual's demeanor is a result of their extensive time getting mad on the computer. but then again, what am I doing right now?
hmm silly people would use it that way, I think it's original intention was to mock Zenz for being literally the only source china watchers keep citing to attack the country.
Ive def seen people dunk on him for how he looks. One post in particular stood out to me where they were like “anyone who looks like this :zenz:” :cringe:
There was an old thread with exactly this same struggle session and the point made about Zens look is that it is not just his face but the clothing choices, his glasses and his haircut.
He definitely has a stereotypical look but the point is apart from his face he can change all of those things.
Haircut? Grow his hair.
Weirdo glasses? Wear contacts. worse case try different frames.
Shitty clothing? He certainly isn't a working class person struggling to make ends meet, if he can afford a nice suit he can afford a better suit.
I don't see any problem in critiquing those things. If you didn't know who that person is supposed to be he looks like any normal white male with a shitty fashion sense that happens to look like certain other people with the same shitty fashion sense. None of that is inherent to him as a human being.
As I said this is not the first struggle session about the Zens emote usage, nothing changed since the last time, this struggle session is literaly the same talking point you decide if people care or not. I too think most people don't care about his look yet here we are again.
I wouldn't say that :xi: is body shaming, even if Xi Jinping isn't conventionally attractive. It is simply a picture of Adrian Zenz and I've not seen it used for anything other than referencing Adrian Zenz.
and I’ve not seen it used for anything other than referencing Adrian Zenz.
I have a few times. I don’t think that that’s the stated intent of the emoji but I have seen people dunk on his looks using it. We can just call people out on it tho
Yeah like the :le-pol-face: seems a bit childish to me because it's literally just "you are ugly, therefore wrong"

IIRC The original picture does come from someone who posted Nazi garbage on 4chan.
The original picture is of a mass shooter who gunned down several people at a Walmart
Oh. I thought it came from one of those collages of 4chan hogs posting their faces.

I thought the Zenz emote was for like mocking anti-china stuff obviously written by him and not about how he looked?
I’ve seen it used for the latter often

true, I guess lots of people need to change the way they use that emote ___

Literally who gives a shit how he’s dressed? The bigger problem is he’s paid liar

Excuse me, Xi is the most attractive man alive and I'm going to need you to delete these heinous lies immediately.
unironically he do got me feeling some type of way sometimes :panting:

If you say so I guess.

It came from a compilation of mass shooter incels and they all looked like that
And after he murdered those dozens of women, suddenly people were like "he's kinda cute, why'd he have to do that?" Sickening.
