Why that amount of anger in comments? I am starting to think that these people see wealth as problem instead of poverty :triggered:

Eating the rich requires work and effort, both of which exclude the only people wanting to do it, so probably never lol

Ah yes the "anti-capitalists are lazy" argument that makes no sense rises once more 

Soft, soothing, and succulent

For a company that sells a relatively small selection of products, this is mind blowing. Also given the fact that they’re not dominant in any category they are in except for tablets and smartwatches. Is it ethical? Probably not but it’s really complicated. Since we are looking at valuation and it’s spread to many shareholders. Them still having hundreds of billions in the bank is still gross.

I don’t even think that the company is that happy about it, given the increasing scrutiny they are facing in the regulatory side of things.

When Apple’s good they’re really good, but they can be evil sometimes. From not disclosing throttling devices to unreasonable cuts with payments. Personally I prefer their user experience, especially with how they handle payments and privacy. But their greed has to stop somewhere.

Average Voter: *allows the government to give the private sector more money, power, and influence* “pull yourselves up by your bootstraps!”

 

Also Average Voter: *is poor, unhealthy, and has no insurance-* “These evil Mexicans and Chinese are forcing corporations to steal our jobs! So unfair

Wouldn't the rich have been eaten already if the work and effort were put in?

Idk if you noticed but the government has bombed, shot, arrested, sabotaged and assassinated countless people for trying to make change since pretty much the birth of western civilization. There are literally people being pulled off the street into unmarked vans in the US now for protesting. So you tell me.

It‘s like swimming upstream against a strong current. It takes a gargantuan amount of effort to just make a little bit of progress, doesn‘t mean it‘s not worth it. Except in this case the river is hurtling us towards a climate apocalypse.

As much as I'd love to fully boycott Apple, I do really like my Macbook Pro (without the touchbar :triggered:).

I don't know if I'd really want to switch to Linux :/
