    READ THIS COMMENT if you want the true context to this story: The ENTIRE premise of the thumbs up emoji being canceled by Gen Z is nothing more than a blown out of proportion story by the news media, originally written by The New York Post to stir up controversy. An author on NY Post wrote an entire article claiming that Gen Z is outraged over the thumbs up emoji being “passive aggressive” because of a Reddit post they saw and cited in the article. The Reddit post has only roughly 100 upvotes at the time of this writing. Fox News’ late night show host Greg Gutfeld then put the NY Post article on blast, only showing the headline without context of the article and further claiming that the entirety of Gen Z was outraged over the emoji. If you didn’t know, now you do. This is a media operation to generate views and stir up controversy when there is NO STORY. Spread the word to EDUCATE others!

    Not really. Have you ever been corrected by a Gen Z? It’s supposed to be the other way around! Older looking down at the younger. Now, they’re punishing and cold & laugh at you behind your back even though they know little about life or have any life experience whatsoever. They’re the rude ones. It’s haughty arrogant behavior. Actually bringing it up reminds them that they need to share the digital space with everything out there. Like they say, they must “deal with it.” That will Make them stronger and more resilient towards diversity.
