I totally get what you’re saying.
Apple products are not bad. But their corporate elitist attitude trickles down the entire Apple tree and poisons the fruit.
You can clearly see it in their new Apple watch. It’s a hipster tinker toy with unisex (aka GAY) styling, but they push it along like it’s a life changing event, and its cultural followers play the Alinsky tactic of attacking naysayers. You’re and Apple hater if you don’t accept failed products, right? Everything old and traditional is BAD. Everything fresh and new is GOOD. Anything we make is GOOD. If you don’t like what we make, you are BAD.
That’s not capitalism, that’s corporate cultist elitism. And it continues to be pumped by their queer leader Mr. Cook.
I think the watch is an amazing product. Is it for me? No. Like you I don’t see a need for it in my life.
If you are into exotic watches, it has some great things to offer.
As a gadget freak, I can appreciate it without being compelled to buy in.
If someone addresses it in these terms, I have no problem with it. Even disagreeing with me on point, is certainly not a problem for me.
Having to go the route of talking about non-capitalist corporate cultist elitism to get a point across seems to me to reveal something far removed than the issue of a watch’s value or lack thereof.
As for Apple’s leader, seems to me if he was straight it wouldn’t make it a straight company anymore than him being a homosexual makes it a homosexual company.
Why even mention it?
