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.
Tim Cook is hoping to be spared when Trump starts purging gay people.
It feels to me like it all went to shit when Bush stole the election from Gore - using the Supreme Court I might add.
I’m 37 this year and I remember being a kid at a time when we were all more optimistic and well off. When a middle class existed in the west. When we were told the world was our oyster and we just had to study and work hard to get anything we wanted. That piece of advice was valid to a handful of us millenials, diminishing to those born in the 1990s. My husband is 31 and has never been on an overseas holiday - the differences in privilege just being born 6 years later are stark and upsetting. It’s only gotten worse for younger generations and the people who did all this are cackling as they push their boots in harder on our throats.
As a pacifist I just don’t know what to do anymore other than try to live my life among the damned and hope it resolves itself before something comes for me and mine.
Fair. Maybe if he’d given some of Apple’s ill gotten gains to gay organisations we wouldn’t be here!
