I don't doubt that people use this emoji in the way the article suggests, but is there any good reason for the emoji to have an article separate from the word "ninja"? The word "ninja" is being used in a euphemistic sense, but the emoji isn't; it's just being used as an alternative way to write the word "ninja".

However, the euphemistic use of the word "ninja" that this article notes is a valid definition, which surprisingly isn't already listed in the "ninja" article. I've seen people use that euphemism in written form, but it's always been spelled out as "ninja", not as an emoji.

I think it would be good to add an additional definition reading "euphemism for nigga" to the "ninja" article (I mean, I can tell you right now that there are more people who use the word "ninja" in that way than there are Juggalos,) and then this article would either be deleted or would just note that the emoji is a substitute for the word "ninja". (As such, people are just as likely to use it to convey concepts associated with actual ninjas, like "I'm sneaky" or "I have secret skills", as they are to use it as a euphemism.) If a phrase comes into use where the emoji is used consistently, like if it becomes very common for people to write "my [ninja emoji]", then there could be a separate article for that phrase which would explain that it's a euphemism. 2600:1702:460:3780:0:0:0:49 22:38, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
