Khloe Kardashian is currently trending on Twitter this morning after she used a Black lady emoji to describe herself.

Fans are not here for the Good Americans founder’s use of black emojis since the Kardashian Klan is known for cultural appropriation, and most importantly she’s NOT Black!
Black Twitter reacted in a way that we knew they would:
One user tweeted, “unless your dad is actually oj u have no reasons to use this emoji”
unless ur dad is actually oj u have no reasons to use this emoji

The Tweet comes after Khloe tweeted a photo of herself in a bikini tanning, she wrote “I have been looking everywhere and literally I can’t find ONE f*ck to give! I AM EXHAUSTED!”

One user basically read all of our minds because tanning doesn’t mean your Black and that you can use Black women’s emojis. She tweeted “Bitches get a tan and start changing their emoji skin tone..”

Another user tweeted “not a yeast yeti using the colored people emojis,” and after that, the jokes were pouring in:

One Twitter user tried to defend Khloe by saying that the emoji she used wasn’t a Black woman. (The user isn’t black herself)
