According to a New York Times report, on Thursday, the U.S. government’s General Services Administration (GSA) removed the spoon emoji as an option that users of its videoconferencing platform can select to express themselves.
The move comes a day after workers embraced the digital cutlery to protest the Trump administration’s “Fork in the Road” resignation offer.
dicksspoons out forharambefree speech 🥄🥄🥄Oh splendid, the spoon gestapo’s here—scrubbing dissent one forking emoji at a time. Musk-Trump synergy in full clown mode: delete the 🥄, bury the evidence, pretend the resistance never happened.
Imagine feeling threatened by a utensil. These chuckleheads nuked spoons faster than a toddler bans broccoli. ”Fork in the Road”? More like ”Fork You”—but labor’s serving petty defiance with a side of Slack rebellion.
Keep licking that boot, boys. When your dystopian flowchart includes emoji purges, maybe the problem isn’t the spoons—it’s the rotted system they’re scooping out. My status? Still a shovel.

Emojis are characters… They can still be pasted in to text fields…

There really should be a pitchfork emoji.
If they want forks, they’ll get forks. Just not in the road.
Edit: I should have said, “fork in the chode”. It was right there.
there’s also not a traffic cone emoji. Not that related, but I swear there was one.
Seems like a violation of their first amendment rights. The government is not a private company.
So it’s not so much a fork in the road as it is a chopstick.
Time for the knife emojus, I suppose.
There is no spoon.
Could always sub with a spork.
Salad Fingers has entered the chat.
I just don’t have the spoons for this.
Oh, FORK YOU Trump!
