Ugh, just shut up. Accusing Nakoichi of being a Zionist is bad faith and the worst they are guilty of is getting a little heated at times.
While I do think that the emoji should be updated, it is a weird fucking hill to die on, and misrepresenting the material conditions for not having the Star of David on the flag is gross. I believe that the decision was made before October 7th, and it was a lose/lose situation where if you have the Star of David on the flag, people will smear you as an anti-Semite who hates Jewish people, because you want to throw Jews in the oven or something. And now people like you are arguing “you’re conflating Jewish people with Israel which is anti-Semitic” while ignoring the context behind the original decision to exclude it.
And we can continue to argue this bullshit all night, I could make the argument that removing the Star of David from the flag of Israel is wise, because it separates the Jewish identity from Israel and removes the association of Jewish people and zionists, helping Jewish folk reclaim their symbol from the Zionist entity.
But why the fuck should any of us waste time bickering about this subject further? Maybe we should put our energy into better shit then semantic arguments?
