If I was an Apple shareholder I’d advise Tim Cook to use his tongue when kissing Trump’s ass because that’s his job.

If you were an apple shareholder, I would hope to maximize your financial pain, by equivicating owning an iPhone with owning a Tesla.

American citizens are being kidnapped off the streets by the Trump regime, and Tim Fuckface gave Smaug a gold statue.

I dont want a naziPhone or naziBook.

Or a naziBook Pro.

You’re confusing your personal opinions with opinions of majority, and it’s the majority that Apple is concerned about because they create mass market devices to sell them. Last I checked Trump won the popular vote which is a bit of an indicator where the majority in the US is. Rest of the world isn’t that into US domestic politics.

You're conflating your opinions with things that I give a fuck about.

That explains the wall to wall happiness, and sky high presidential approval ratings.

Nonsequitur unrelated to the topic at hand.

iPhone = naziPhone

If you aren’t interested in hearing opinions different to your own you might opt to write a blog and store it on a piece of paper under a secret rock.

Seems to be doing relatively fine for the amount of dumb stuff he does on daily basis. Elections are the only objective poll. Definitely not at the levels required to make people boycott companies based on gifts given by the CEO.

Americentrism at it’s best. Apple sells things outside of US, a shocker, I know. We also have other luxuries, like toilet paper and bicycles.

Conversely, if I'm not interested in your opinion specifically, I'll just heap scorn on you.

Maybe type a pithy response on your naziPhone about it.

I know it feels good, playing a tough guy on the internet, but this kind of attitude has a counterproductive effect on getting out of a crisis of democracy. You’re lost deep in magical thinking. I know this from experience of a US vassal that served as a laboratory for what conservatives are playing out in the rest of the world currently.

Even if you used a scanning, tunneling electron microscope, you still wouldn't be able to measure how little I value your opinion.

That's why I didn't bother reading your last comment.
