As someone who fits into this description I've never heard of these issues before, but seeing as a lot of people don't use their brains when considering other people, it's not surprising it happens. This would be a good way to increase awareness, so I support.

I don’t see why no one’s thought of this before, it’s a brilliant idea! There’s already emojis for pride and Black Lives Matter, and this is just as important as those, so I don’t see why this shouldn’t be added. It would be helpful if someone could create a model of what the emoji might look like, most likely the topic owner.

Sure, usually I don’t support new emojis because there are so many already, but I think this is a big issue. I’d made a suggestion beforehand to help represent disorders, but this is definitely a smoother, efficient, and more feasible suggestion in the long run.

As someone neurodivergent (forgot what i was diagnosed with), I heavily like this idea, it'll increase awareness and it'll make more users welcome to the website.

Wow you are really bringing back all your old topics today :lol:

Support since there are no cons with implementing this and would increase awareness

Support.it’ll make people know that the puzzle piece symbol is offensive and spread awareness.until I saw a project on autism I didn’t know the puzzle symbol, was offensive because my school uses it (knowing it’s offensive or not) and I thought it was the only one.

To celebrate autism acceptance month, I think it'd be great if neurodivergency related emojis were added to scratch. A good one to add would be the rainbow infinity symbol (and maybe a gold infinity symbol, too), although, a sunflower emoji could also be added to represent the sunflower lanyard program. Symbols containing blue, puzzle pieces, ribbons, or anything else relating to autism speaks should not be added as neurodivergency emojis.

Support, Scratch is for everyone regardless if you are neurodivergent or not, and adding these emojis would be good for neurodivergent people because the infinity symbol (a neurodivergent sign) is in Scratch as an emoji

It doesn't do anything. I guess having a neurodivergency studio featured isn't enough huh. When someone joins Scratch they openly say in the CG everybody is welcome regardless of anything, included ability.

Agreed, I don’t think we need these emojis

We don't really need a binoculars emoji either, but I haven't seen any complaints about that emoji lately.

The ST had decided to add them. What are we going to do now? Campaign against it?
I don't understand why add an emoji while they can do more important things that actually benefit people.
