Fades is either drinking Apple flavor Kool-Aid or has been fully brainwashed by apple into thinking everything is okay because a company said "you don't care, you're stuck here with us."

It's really sad how people will bootlick for any company once they bought enough products.

Hey there Mr. Debs!! You're actually one of my heroes. You led a complicated life, but I seriously admire your commitment to a meaningful social safety net for everyone.

That said, I quite dislike Apple, and have never in my life purchased one of their products for a myriad of reasons. But I do believe that Fade is factually correct in what they say. The consolidation of funtions into new ports and communication standards isn't something inherently worth railing against.

Do I think they executed that consolidation particularly well? Hell no. But let's not paint our fellow Blahaj as bootlickers for making and presenting a factually sound argument.

With love,

Sure, but the constant spam of the same words and then calling anyone for not agreeing with the copypasta a moron is straight out of the textbook of various cults and fringe political groups.
