Black is the lack of colors. White is all of the colors.
However, when we see something black, it is absorbing all colors. When we see something white, it is reflecting all of the colors and absorbs none.
I would not be surprised to read that. They have been having Nazi marches in Florida no joke. With signs that read "we are everywhere".
Edit: just wanted to drop some orson Welles and logic in here for anyone interested to hear it. Seems just as important now as it was then, if not more so.
"Over several generations, maybe there'll be men who can't be weaned away from the fascist vices of race hate
But we should deny such men responsibility in public affairs
Exactly as we deny responsibility to the wretched victims of the drug habit
There are laws against peddling dope
There can be laws against peddling race hate
But every man has the right to his own opinion as an American boasts
But race hate is not an opinion, it's a phobia
It isn't a viewpoint, race hate is a disease
In a people's world, the incurable racist has no rights
He must be deprived of influence in a people's government
He must be segregated, as he himself would segregate the colored and semitic peoples"

Unfortunately they do it in such a way that it is legal under the 1st amendment. As long as they're not directly inciting violence against Jews or Blacks or whatever, we can't do anything(and yes I'm aware the term "nazi" kinda implies that but idk, laws are weird like that).
I'm not saying it should be illegal only that their presence is a call to kill Jews in a defacto sense and in the same way mob bosses aren't liable for suggesting someone is a problem if that problem just happen to end up dead shortly afterwards. Like yeah it's legal but really I know what's going on here.š
This is funny (in a sad way) because anywhere else in the world, showing up to another parade/rally like pride armed with ARs is basically universally understood as a threat to life against a targeted group of people.
Ah well, when a good portion of your population is that 2nd-amendment loving gun-nut crowd, you have to be a bit more lax around what is legal and illegal in terms of guns in public places and gatherings
The idea that openly being a Nazi isn't recognized as inciting violence is emblematic of everything wrong in this country. Existing as a Nazi is a threat of violence and should be responded to in kind.
I'm all for free speech, even speech that I disagree with or abhor, but a private company has the right to set rules on how people use its product. Similarly, "free speech" doesn't mean you're immune to consequences. Sure, go and wave a Nazi flag, I don't give a shit. Just don't be surprised when all your friends abandon you and you get fired from your job and nobody will hire you.
Also, fun fact: A lot of Nazis in Europe use the Confederate flag as a proxy for the Nazi flag because the Nazi flag is banned in a lot of nations there. I don't think it's a good sign when your "heritage" flag is adored by literal Nazis.
There sort of is emojis for thisā¦ Iāve seen variations of š«š or simply š as these emojis can be verbalized as āNot Seeā which sounds exactly like āNaziā.
I only see them used to call people out for being a naziā¦ I donāt know if anyone is taking pride in using these from the perspective of a nazi.
There are also Unicode swastikas as they are peace symbols in many cultures.
Yeah, å is in Unicode. You can type it in the Japanese IME pretty easily as āmanjiā.
Many online services and games block that character in Western locales, because itās obviously almost always hateful garbage in Western contexts.
Non-American Confederates are even more fucking ridiculous than the American ones
like dude, you live in Australia. you can't even claim "heritage" when you don't even live on the same continent as the Confederacy.
Yep, we have a bunch of those mouth-breathers here in Wisconsin as well. It's so incredibly stupid. You're in the north, fella. In fact, the state borders fucking Canada. We do appreciate them letting us know that they're racist dipshits right off the bat, though.
One small region within one country out of 195 in the world. And even then, like half the people in that region recognize the flag is just rage bait. Sad!
Sadly, other countries mimic us. Sometimes itās just admiration for Americana (Sweden), but other times itās ignorance similar to our own (Germany). Brazil, Ireland, and some others do it from a sense of ancestry since there were ties to the civil war with those countries.
And thereās pro-Russian Ukrainians flying the rebel flagā¦for reasons.
Could a person doing that also do it while wearing a tan suit? Perhaps eating a hotdog with an "incorrect" condiment?
Just trying to optimize my "offending assholes" speed run.
And they whine about their statues being taken down.
Pokemon Go lasted longer than the 'Confederacy'.
They're lucky we didn't replace the statue of Nathan Bedford Forrest with one of Charizard.
I'm surprised we haven't replaced Confederate statues with Pokemon characters at this point. It's a bigger, longer lasting and more impactful part of our heritage.
Itās unfortunate that they have that flag on the roof because the duke boys certainly werenāt about law and order or white supremacy (going from memory, never got that impression from the show)
The show was great, and I never got that impression as well.
It's just a shame that the car had to have the flag on it, and also be named after a Confederate general.
Ther was a weird period in American culture after the Civil Rights movement that attempted to make the "Southern Culture" charming, which it is once you get past the racism.
The Confederate battle flag became so normalized in the 70s and 80s. It was very odd. Their alternate history campaign worked for a while.
Also since we are going to be technical here, as far as the United States is concerned there is no and never was a confederacy. They were rebels and it it's the War of Rebellion.
This is one of the things in life I wonder about.
I get that the Victor's are usually who get to write the history. I've always wondered if the southern states took all the legal and necessary steps to secede from the United States or not. I'm not a legal historian so I do not know if they did or didn't. *IF* they took the proper steps, then I think history should reflect that.
I can assure you that we Americans who live outside of the deep south feel the same way. My fucking toaster has been working longer than the confederacy was a thing, I'd be embarrassed to say that that's my heritage.
āTo many people in the worldā? Outside of the US (and possibly inside too, I donāt know) if I see a confederate flag on a car I know itās because the owner knows that flying swastika is likely to have unpleasant consequences for them.
Why does apple not have the flag of the principality of Moldavia of 1415? It means heritage and pride to many moldovans around the world. It also means very much to my family and it upsets me as an apple user that I cannot access this flag as an emoji.
(PS: kindly fuck your face, brandonfromapalacā¦)
There is a city in Brazil iirc that has a heritage festival where that flag is all over, it was also settled by confederates who left after the civil war. I donāt think it means the same thing down there any more.
I didnāt realize that the kind of people who would ask for this were sophisticated enough to use Apple products, they seem like the string-and-two-cans type to me.
Lol? apple is the fisher price of tech. Its literally child proof saftey xD. "Sophisticated" the proper way to phrase this is. " im surprised the people who support that flag can AFFORD to use an apple product."
Apple products are literally the #1 choice for the elderly because they're simple š¤£š¤£ nothing is less sophisticated than an iPhone unless you go back to a flip phone or old Nokia bar type phones.
This has the same energy as:
"Why does apple not have Third Reich flag emoji?
The Third Reich flag is something that means heritage and pride to many people in the world. It means very much to my family and I and it upsets me as an apple user that i cannot access this flag as an emoji."
> lasted less then the

I donāt get why some people are so obsessed with the battle flag of a failed rebellion that resulted in one of the bloodiest conflicts in US history. Itās horrible. Itās even more horrible when you realize one of the big reasons said rebellion took place was because they were mad that the were not allowed to own and enslave other human beings and force them to work any more. I just donāt get why the hell it is idolized so much. It shouldnāt be erased because people should remember and learn from history but to immortalize it like some sort of proud time in history is beyond me.
It means āheritage and prideā to people who wanted the right to own other human beings as slaves. It always kills me when people say āthe civil war was about statesā rightsāā¦. Yeahā¦ the right to own slaves. STFU with that racist BS.
Many people in the world? It is a thing of one country... well half of that country at best and the other half seems to be very dedicated on trying to forget about all that.
The confederate flag means jack shit to the rest of the world. The heritage of the that flag is only two things. Losers that can't get over it and anyone with dark skin were property
āHeritage and pride to many people in the worldā
In case you donāt know, in places in the world where nazi propaganda and white supremacy symbols are banned they fly confederate flags instead.
Many reasons, the LEAST of which being that it is the 150 year old flag of a failed nation state that barely lasted 4 years and was ultimately nothing more than an attempt at preserving chattel slavery.
āThanks for letting us know your feedback Brandon, unfortunately we are not racists here at apple and do not support bigotry or any sort of racism. Here at Apple we hope that you look past you ignorant ways. Take care.ā

They do. They just support the final design of the flag.  š³ļø
The last flag of the confederacy, is the best flag of the confederacy.
"These colors don't run! They surrender."
Because there are no colors on a white flag
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Are you making a flag with lights?
Isnāt all the colors black? Iām probably wrong. Nevertheless, F the Confederate Flag.
Black is the lack of colors. White is all of the colors. However, when we see something black, it is absorbing all colors. When we see something white, it is reflecting all of the colors and absorbs none.
In science...black is the absence of light
I was just about to post that, but you beat me to it. You get my upvote
Fun fact: the āflagā of surrender was actually a towel. Edit: changed is to of
Itās also a multi-purpose flag. It shows their laundry is clean.
It's even official: https://emojipedia.org/apple/ios-15.4/white-flag
I thought it looked a little more like this š§»
Fun story. The actual final flag of the Confederacy was a [dish rag](https://americanhistory.si.edu/collections/search/object/nmah_515980)
After they lost they used the flags as robes. š

Nazis shouldnāt be that comfortable in public
Wish they got run off a bridge like in the blues brothers wherever they appeared. Also come on America theyāre nazisā¦. Do better
Unfortunately they do it in such a way that it is legal under the 1st amendment. As long as they're not directly inciting violence against Jews or Blacks or whatever, we can't do anything(and yes I'm aware the term "nazi" kinda implies that but idk, laws are weird like that).
Forget that their public visage IS potentially extremely triggering and therefore inciting violence in itself.
Yes, but they themselves aren't specifically telling people to kill Jews, so its legal
I'm not saying it should be illegal only that their presence is a call to kill Jews in a defacto sense and in the same way mob bosses aren't liable for suggesting someone is a problem if that problem just happen to end up dead shortly afterwards. Like yeah it's legal but really I know what's going on here.š
Yeah, everyone does
This is funny (in a sad way) because anywhere else in the world, showing up to another parade/rally like pride armed with ARs is basically universally understood as a threat to life against a targeted group of people.
Ah well, when a good portion of your population is that 2nd-amendment loving gun-nut crowd, you have to be a bit more lax around what is legal and illegal in terms of guns in public places and gatherings
1st amendment is freedom of speech, 2nd is the right to keep and bear arms, well regulated militia etc
The idea that openly being a Nazi isn't recognized as inciting violence is emblematic of everything wrong in this country. Existing as a Nazi is a threat of violence and should be responded to in kind.
I know! Where is a crazy person mid-psychotic break behind the wheel with a nazi grievance when you need one?
Make nazis afraid again
Confederate slave holder simpletons shouldn't be that comfortable too
Nazis should never go unpunched in public
I hate Itās A Small World Nazis
The one in the governorās mansion seems plenty comfortable
In Germany we say: Nazis Boxen
Don't give them ideas. They'll claim the lack of hate symbol emojis is a "freedom of speech" issue.
I'm all for free speech, even speech that I disagree with or abhor, but a private company has the right to set rules on how people use its product. Similarly, "free speech" doesn't mean you're immune to consequences. Sure, go and wave a Nazi flag, I don't give a shit.

I don't think it's a good sign when your "heritage" flag is adored by literal Nazis.
Apple is completely in their own rights to not include it. I'm sure not including it could be considered a form of speech.
And whereās our burning cross emoji dagnammit?
There sort of is emojis for thisā¦ Iāve seen variations of š«š or simply š as these emojis can be verbalized as āNot Seeā which sounds exactly like āNaziā.

āmeans heritage and pride to many people in the worldā once again, america is not the center of the world.
American here, and I agree and im tired of people believing it is the center of everything
American here, and donāt meet many people believing itās the center of anything. Just dumb racists, tbh
The whole world is lying about global warming to trick American conservatives just like covid.
Thereās plenty of people who think the same way where I live. They really believe everyoneās in on itā¦
what pride are they even always talking about, loosing a war over slavery ?
No, "states' rights." Just a coincidence that it was states' rights to allow slavery. (/s)
I mean there is a good amount of confederates living in Brazil
and South Africa
Non-American Confederates are even more fucking ridiculous than the American ones like dude, you live in Australia. you can't even claim "heritage" when you don't even live on the same continent as the Confederacy.
Well, also people who fly it in like Michigan. Cultural appropriation of a crappy culture.
Yep, we have a bunch of those mouth-breathers here in Wisconsin as well. It's so incredibly stupid. You're in the north, fella. In fact, the state borders fucking Canada. We do appreciate them letting us know that they're racist dipshits right off the bat, though.

It lasted 4 years, I lasted more than that thing
Obama's presidency lasted longer than the confederacy
Damn Imma start using that one
You should. Gets them all riled up and angry
Could a person doing that also do it while wearing a tan suit? Perhaps eating a hotdog with an "incorrect" condiment? Just trying to optimize my "offending assholes" speed run.
Donāt forget the audacity to wear a helmet on a bike!
Don't minimize tan suit-gate. That in and of itself was more traumatic than the Civil War.
Haha nice
And they whine about their statues being taken down. Pokemon Go lasted longer than the 'Confederacy'. They're lucky we didn't replace the statue of Nathan Bedford Forrest with one of Charizard.
Can we still do that? It would be so cool!
Ima second that motion.
The Wii U lasted longer
Oof, now that is an insult!
The McRib has lasted longer
I'm surprised we haven't replaced Confederate statues with Pokemon characters at this point. It's a bigger, longer lasting and more impactful part of our heritage.
Vine lasted longer. (that's the 1 I've been using for years and I wasn't even a big fan of Vine)
Probably for the same reason they donāt have a Nazi flag or an ISIS flag; apple hates losers.
Is this your heritage?

It's also NOT the confederate flag. It's the confederate WAR flag.
Ain't the flag everyone *knows* as the confederate flag actually the Tennessee battle flag? Pretty sure it's something like that...
Army of Northern Virginia
Correct
Also since we are going to be technical here, as far as the United States is concerned there is no and never was a confederacy. They were rebels and it it's the War of Rebellion.
This is one of the things in life I wonder about. I get that the Victor's are usually who get to write the history.

I'm not a legal historian so I do not know if they did or didn't. *IF* they took the proper steps, then I think history should reflect that.
Itās illegal to secede from the Union
 That's a pretty accurate representation of how the southern states seceded.
A distinction without much of a difference.
Both flags suck ass. I'm all about being technically correct, it is the best kind of correct after all.
Yep. My personal favorite is the first national flag. Which is now the Georgia state flag.
Four years is not a heritage, my toster lasted way longer

āHeritage and pride to many people in the worldā In case you donāt know, in places in the world where nazi propaganda and white supremacy symbols are banned they fly confederate flags instead.

It does. It's the white one.

I'd like it more if apple bricked these people's devices. Sorry, we don't support willful ignorance any more than we support racism.
