It's gross even thinking of using the Chomsky emote in the usual "lol I'm old" way. :disgost:

EDIT: I didn't call for the removal of the old emojis. I called for new emojis so I don't feel gross using Chomsky's face to represent me in some "I'm old lol" post.

    I mean if we're being real: We have far more emotes of Stalin and he confirmed knocked up an underage girl multiple times.

    So where do we draw the line on this exactly?

      I don't think that's confirmed. The author who asserted that also wrote Stalin: The Court of the Red Tsar (Montefiore), and the genetic test match was reported from a fake newspaper (The Siberian Times).

        I've seen it stated elsewhere in respectable sources, I buy it personally.

        Fact is: There are at absolute minimum allegations that Stalin was a pedo.

            In some Russian biographies about him that I read in the past. Off the top of my head I don't have a specific title.

            Opinion discarded right?

              No, not at all; I'm genuinely on the fence. I just wanted to dig deeper.

      Wouldn't say that's the only bad thing he did lmao

      Speaking of lmao, we have a tonne of :mao-clap: emotes, and bloody hell there were some non-chill consequences of his policy and cult of personality during the cultural revolution.

        What I mean is: If we get rid of Chomsky's emotes for associating with Epstein, should we not also get rid of Stalin's for provably having sex with an underage girl?

        And to clarify: I'm against removing either. I think it would set a dumb and unnecessary precedent for "cancelling" emotes.

          Enslaved children are okay as long as they're only giving foot rubs :sus-torment:

          Did you ever read accounts from those enslaved children? Groening got off to having deliberately filthy feet and enjoyed the discomfort and distress that it caused those children. :guts-rage:

      The request was for an emote not associated with kiddie creepers, so an outspoken Biden supporter is probably out of the question

        Yeah but Bernie seems like the kind of guy who never actually diddled any kids, like he'll work with the diddlers but not partake

        So yeah at worst he's a cuck

        Well everyone but myself is a liberal, so yes.

        Hmmmm... I dunno I can't think of any super old lefties where it wouldn't feel weird. Parenti is old butvis also in mental decline so we might be SOL on that particular niche.

        We may have to settle for :yes-honey-left: lol

      He took kickbacks from :epstein: and answered "none of your damn business" to questions about his :epstein: associations.

          Okay, I see an article saying Chomskys had a lot of funds spread out and Epstein helped him transfer it all to a single account. That’s not a kickback. That just sounds like Epstein doing his day job.

          🤔🤣

            Nah man totally sound defence, I had some empty space on my wall so I had hitler paint something up for me to put there. We’re not buddies or anything, he was just using his passion.

          his associations with Epstein happened after he was a known child sex trafficker, and he defended this with the "hE sErvEd hIs TiMe" bullshit

          incredibly damning

      who fuckin knows. as far as i'm concerned a self-styled radical who did business with billionaire child-rapists should be tossed in the furnace whether he partook of the forbidden fruit or not. i can do some pretty spectacular mental gymnastics to defend a Favorite Guy of mine, but the fact is that is not someone with my class interests.

    :grillman: perhaps?

    But I use him for a specific type of older person, an upper-middle-class older person that somehow hates poor people, but likes to cosplay as a poor person. So expect pickup trucks, calling himself a "redneck" despite living in a McMansion, etc.
