this is literal nonsense

I wonder how that meeting went at Microsoft.

>pistol-emoji-comparison(...).jpg
>not a single pistol in the picture

>Microsoft the contrarian

>I wonder how that meeting went at Microsoft.

I'd like to imagine someone silently put his gun on the table and left it there.
Silence ensued, and the gun emoji stayed.

Why did the gooks acquiesce?

Obviously they were just following everyone else.

What's up with the 2013-2015 design for Microsoft? Did Billy accidentally an Area 51 gun recovered from Roswell?

tbhy microsofts raygun is far cooler t han any of the censored water pistols

JUST

this water pistol shit is disgusting. Just remember every time you see a despicable "job" or "uni" thread pop up on Jow Forums you're talking to the slime responsible for this digital cuckoldry.

>to reflect our values
this speaks volumes

Someone with twitter account point out that water pistols can be used for acid attacks. And we have epodemic of those.

Oh, Britain...

It really does.
It means that, amongst other things, they are admitting they have a bias and actively engage in enforcing their bias upon their products. We've all known this, but this is them admitting it.

About the same as the bing safe search meeting.

It goes beyond that. They're taking it for granted that communication between people not having anything to do with them must reflect their corporate "values." The idea that two people use their Windows or browser to express ideas beyond that is immoral and must be fought. And liberals cheer for it.

(and that's a good thing)

...

>their corporate "values."
This came off wrong be cause it implies they're their own. Every corporation has the exact same set of professed pseudoreligious Diversity(tm) beliefs.

Google should of kept blunderbuss as gun icon

>should of
you should HAVE stayed in school

On the plus side it will render a whole lot of basketball-american posts pretty funny

>microsoft openly telling people it's a political move

Surreal to think of emojis as a political battleground. I mean of course we had all the african american emojis added a few years back, and the big push to remove 'cute' females and replace them with 'powerful' females. But we rarely see companies openly tell people that it's to manipulate them.

>But we rarely see companies openly tell people that it's to manipulate them.
what

Fucking apple, always ignoring the unicode standard to just show whatever the fuck they want rather than what the emoji is actually supposed to show. They did the same with the smiling shit.

they ruined the new moon face,

Nvm, only facebook is based.

I know you're trying to be funny/"ironic" but there actually is a lot of data in favor of this.

>using software that doesn't respect user-specified fonts

Looks like a 56% baby

Revolvers and semi automatics are both considered pistols.

Zuck is not a cuck!

say what you will about facebook but bullshit ethical concerns have never bothered them

Yeah I'd much rather just get straight up shot

>if we pretend guns don't exist, the shootings will stop!
American logic at its finest

>caring about emojis

Can all you fucking normalfags go back to rebbit already?

must be good to simultaneously have a quasi-government-sized monopoly and be in the business of pro-israel and anti-european social engineering

>If I pretend statistics don't exist, then I can just pretend America has a gun problem that needs to be solved by more gov't
Yuropean logic at it's finest

Someone said "we have to do something about the gun culture" and nobody was willing to openly disagree, or even say, "stacy, we make software."

So how does that lead them to changing the laser gun to a handgun?
