    Well that’s… Interesting to say the least. Opened the comment in a browser and long-clicked the image, and it is indeed as you say. You likely got downvoted cause it seems troll-ish, but this is some type of fuckery. Maybe it’s a .world thing?

    Edit: It’s hexbear

      I think it should work with any instance, it’s just that Hexbear did all the legwork of drawing all the flag burning emojis 😆

      Edit: Just to prove it, this one is uploaded to SDF, which as an instance has absolutely no special features. AmeriKKKa

      ![AmeriKKKa](https://lemmy.sdf.org/pictrs/image/f1083bec-fb5c-41ef-99aa-f0470ad167f8.png "emoji AmeriKKKa")
      

      And the syntax pulls an image from any URL, so you can host the image on any website. Doesn’t even have to be a Lemmy instance.

      So you can do this on .world as long as you have a URL to the image or a version stored locally. Which I ultra-encourage everyone to do AmeriKKKa AmeriKKKa AmeriKKKa AmeriKKKa AmeriKKKa AmeriKKKa AmeriKKKa
