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

Excuse me, Xi is the most attractive man alive and I’m going to need you to delete these heinous lies immediately.

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

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.
