Ready player 2!

I can't wait for all these fuckwits to get what's coming to them.

[wazowski@lemmy.world]

Fucking gross.

[abettertomorrow@sh.itjust.works]

Fuck you Tim Cook

[entropyflux@lemmy.world]

So Trump didn’t want his usual bribe of a BJ and $10M??

[lumidaub@feddit.org]

Goddammit Tim Apple, it doesn't even look like anything remotely interesting.

For a split second after he stepped aside to reveal it, I actually thought it was a cool dragon figure. Must've been my mind desperately seeking any meaning in this nonsense because I was looking at the phones.

Time to boycott Apple just like everybody decided to boycott Target and Amazon for bending over.

Keeping our morals behind closed doors is what's wrong with the world.

[medicpigbabysaver@lemmy.world]

Release the Epstein files

[skulblaka@sh.itjust.works]

You're probably right.

That doesn't change my opinion, though, that everyone at Apple can go suck-start their own asshole, and they'll never receive another cent of my money for as long as I live.

I already wasn't buying their shit but this has signed and sealed that for the rest of eternity.

[sturmblast@lemmy.world]

Oh hey, another reason Apple fucking sucks. Look at that.

[ambitiousprocess@piefed.social]

Apple stock did, and unfortunately it even makes sense why. Considering how self-centered Trump is, and how easily swayed he can be by a literal shiny rock being given to him, this was probably a legitimately good trade for Apple.

They spend some money on a gold brick with some laser-cut glass, and the president of the entire country either gives them preferential treatment, or simply doesn't take any more extreme actions he was planning to take against them.

I mean at this point you'll have to boycott everyone. Boycotting isn't gonna cut it anymore.

[whatamlemmy@lemmy.world]

Almost like it's a completely bullshit excuse, like "just following orders".

Crime isn't suddenly okay because it's profitable, no matter how much capitalism wants you to believe it.

[gedaliyah@lemmy.world]

Surely 18k gold would be close enough, right?

[answersplease77@lemmy.world]

so Trump excluded Apple from his tarriffs, right?

[muskymelon@lemmy.world]

Tim Cook, and Apple, is supporting a pedophile. Remember that when you walk into an Apple Store, if you can afford to.

You know cook loves money more than his principles.
