  • I can’t stress this enough: OP’s account is obviously a Chinese propaganda account. All they do is point out issues with the West (good) and dismiss absolutely any criticism against China (bad). They claim to be some leftist dude in Canada. The prolific posting alone couldn’t be one person with other activities in their life like eating food or sleeping.

    Oh, and this post links to Iranian state news. OP often falls back on calling criticism of China western media lies but Iranian news sources are good to go I guess.

    Just block their account and enjoy way less China is Perfect spam.






  • I don’t get the aggression people have for someone using different brand.

    People identify the business decisions that Apple makes to be anti-consumer. They then feel frustration and anger for users of Apple products as support for their products only emboldens Apple to continue making anti-consumer decisions, such as the subject of this article.

    Apple is a microcosm representation of the evils of capitalism for many people and they project their feelings about it - powerlessness, disgust, anger, etc. - onto users of Apple products. People associate support for iPhones which enjoys a 61% US market share as support for the boot of capitalism on our throats regardless of whether the Apple user doesn’t know, doesn’t care, or doesn’t agree.

    But he is a bad person.

    People like that don’t deserve patience and understanding.

    These black and white statements won’t do you or anyone else any good. We understand that an inconsiderate or rude act doesn’t define a person when we can believe that about ourselves and love ourselves despite our many mistakes and cringe-worthy incidents.

    When we love ourselves we begin to offer others the same grace and understanding we allow ourselves. We see the myriad reasons we don’t think or act how we’d like to and realize that everyone else’s life is just as difficult and confusing, and often for reasons we’ll never see or understand.
