I have never liked Apple and lately even less. F… US monopolies

    The “donation” has nothing to do with Apple. Tim Cook is a gay man who doesn’t want himself or his family to be lynched by Trump’s wandering gangs of violent homophobic and racist thugs. That wasn’t a donation - it was protection money for the mob.

        Fair. Maybe if he’d given some of Apple’s ill gotten gains to gay organisations we wouldn’t be here!

      I think it was his end run around Apple donating the money directly which would have been a complete disaster. I don’t think Cook supports trump in a “rah rah” sort of way, but knows if the company doesn’t pay him suck up money, it will come back to haunt them later.

      Either way, it’s still gross.
