Reply to: Apple 'failing to protect Chinese factory workers'

Typical corporate bullsh!t

Spouting rubbish to make hipsters feel good about themselves and boost sales but then dummy spitting when it is called out to be a crock of tulip.

And wtf is this good making me gay is a gift bollox - God does not give a foook where you stick your c0ck sonny - and neither does anyone else.

"I consider being gay among the greatest gifts God has given me"

Lol. That's weird.

Damn right, you can see I hit the pub at about 4 from the weekend thread.

But I stand by every post. You don't have to dig deep to see Tin Cook lecture everyone about what they should be doing in their life and demanding his ethics be placed on everyone else. Sanctimonious twunt.

"I consider being gay among the greatest gifts God has given me"

He either has not read the bit in the bible about Sodom and Gomorrah or he thinks he's as good or better than god, I suspect both.

FTFY

Yes, given Apple's rhetoric, I can see why people take particular issue with it. It also tends to attract the hipster crowd. Wonder if this will make them stop consuming Apple products.

TBF, I love the iPhone.

Tim Cook seems to be upset tonight.

I bet he is.

At the end of the day, if there were better options then those workers wouldn't be there. So you can boycott apple products, and see those workers unemployed. Or protest for higher prices, and see only some of those workers unemployed, or carry on as normal and see those workers freely choose what is best for them under the circumstances.

Complaining about it while enjoying the 21st century western lifestyle that an advanced economy brings, with the support of less advanced economies' labour, stinks of hypocrisy to me. If you really cared you'd be living the life of a monk while donating your surplus to the several billion less fortunate across the world.

I don't care. I know that the best thing you can do for those workers in the long run is to keep consuming, and making those factories profitable.

For the obtuse, we all agree labour abridge happens but Apple made certain promises which they never held to.

You are obtuse not to take up that point.
