The "✌🏼" emote, also known as the Victory Hand + Emoji Modifier Fitzpatrick Type-3 emote, is a hand gesture consisting of a raised index and middle finger with the back of the hand facing outward. The addition of the Fitzpatrick Type-3 modifier changes the skin tone of the hand to medium-dark skin tone. It is commonly used to represent peace or victory, and can also be used as a greeting or farewell gesture.
