People in this forum to start boycotting Apple...
...Any minute now...
...Just you wait...
Yeah, it's almost as it they're actually a major market pool that participates in capitalist accumulation. 🤔I'm still amazed that a "communist" nation has so much sway over corporations.
Corporations oblige authoritarianism
Corporations own the media and major means of communication

is it time to post that comic again lolExactly.
Some people are way too eager to shit on Apple but do so from their Google phones, while consuming mass media from giants like Disney who don't have a very good track record either. It's all fucked. But the holier than thou attitude in here is gross.
Moral principles vs Shareholder money. The capitalist's non-dilemma.
Exactly.

That's hilarious. I hope you people aren't using Google.People in this forum to start boycotting Apple...

You are very intelligent!
If you are going to boycott every company that capitulates to China, Google will almost certainly be on the list. That's the one that will be very difficult to avoid.This will literally blow some people's mind.
Blizzard is easy to avoid, but Apple stuff?
So you guys gonna start throwing your iphones in the trash?
this wont stop, sooner or later Sony and MS will get somehow involved with this shit.
People underestimate how much pull China has over the world.
Does anyone knows Microsoft, Nintendo and Sony stance?Y'all like lists?
Someone on Reddit compiled a nice list!
They already are. All consoles get manufactured in China. It's completely impossible to disengage from China. No ethical consumption yadda yadda.So you guys gonna start throwing your iphones in the trash?

Oh, thank you for the compliment Android fan. I just hope your mighty Google doesn't bow to China like Apple.
I ain't got a single apple product.This will literally blow some people's mind.

I remember all the shit I got from Apple fanboys when I said that that add was corportate bullshit.How nice of Apple to keep people safe in HK by removing this app. I guess for next year's feel good video segment (a la this year's Apple Watch saving lives ad) they can throw in some HK police brutality footage
Exactly.

Like clockworkinconvenient truth time: For all the people (rightfully, because them selling out is disgusting especially when they brag so much about how woke they are about human rights and the environment) bashing apple for this, just know that your android devices are:
a) most likely made in china
b) the OS is made by a company who's also making a censored internet for China (project dragonfly)
There's really no "better" alternative, the world's tech products are closely intertwined with China one way or another.
No ethical consumption and such
And why isnt Disney/Marvel getting enough heat? They literally edit their films for Chinese audiences.
At least ESPN is getting blasted
How so? It's not like there's many Android phones that are not manufactured in China and Google is actively working on creating a version of Google that adheres to China's censorship.
This isn't "whataboutism" but a serious question of - what's the alternative?
Every larger corporation is so dependent on China, either as a growth market or as a core location in its supply chain - and that dependency is coming back to haunt them really bad right now.
I'm not familiar with the original comics and had no idea about Doctor Strange, though in retrospect I guess it should have been obvious. That's fucked up (as is everything else in that list).Y'all like lists?

Maybe we just need an alternative to money entirely.
Remember this when any corporation tries to pretend it cares about racial justice, LGBTQ rights, gender equality, etc. We are watching an organ-harvesting dystopian nightmare consume the region's last shred of democracy and these companies are falling all over themselves to help.
They will literally throw you to the wolves if it'll grow their revenue half a percent.
Capitalism is a disease.
