when being constantly singled out, targeted, thought-policed, and tortured by tremendous hordes and every sector of society and the world, I must always be extremely careful not to give them further excuse to target me and attack me in swarms, and must always ensure that I do not ever appear to be 'singling out' any large group. the rights of groups not only has been well legislated, but is one of the best entrenched things in all their ideology. I would understand the need to protect smaller groups from larger groups, or targeted groups from tyranny, but also to protect individuals from large groups. but it seems that the rights of groups are more important than the rights of the individual, and large groups can single out an individual while an individual cannot 'single out' a large group, as one can be targeted and lynched by large groups for this. these of course can be any type of groups, and do not need to be based on gender/race/sexual orientaion. but it is slightly absurd, when speaking of emoticons, not of humans, not only to be subjected to standards of political correctness towards emoticons, but that these come at the cost of the rights of the existent individual.
