Reported at [1284459 - Misinterpretation of emoji](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1284459), when you use the Ireland flag emoji it shows up as Italy and Spain, not Ireland.

AFAIK the flag of Ireland is not currently in any Discourse Emoji set.

What are you typing to get it to come up in the selector?

Thanks for letting me know! I had a bug with replacements that had multiple code points:
