the X engineer responsible for the change ... stated that this design is "not the final design (going to make it look more badass)"

incidentally this engineer is a fascist weeb who complains about gay characters in TV shows and bragged about getting trans flags removed from a grocery store by leaving a negative google review

I don't have strong feelings either way, the water pistol is a bit silly but this particular decision was made as an anti-woke measure by fascist tech bros who just wanna point the gun emoji at the pride flag again

curiously this chud says the emoji was "returned back into its rightful form: an m1911" when it never was an M1911 in the first place, it used to be a revolver

1911 is the chuddiest of pistols lol

yeah of course they went with the epic US imperialism gun instead of the more comical wild west revolver that it was before

(yeah ok wild west guns are also US imperialism guns but still)

It doesn't even look like a M1911, it looks like a HK45

Struggle session: what gun should it be?
