that one example is not the crux of the argument. i'll state it explicitly, in bold text, so it can get through to you: this isn't about you. you may not value the convenience of Apple products, but millions of people do. that you continue to be dumbfounded by the reasons people would use Apple products despite numerous real-world scenarios says more about your lack of empathy and/or social skills than it does about the supposed gullibility of millions of people.
this is why 'the cult of apple' is so obnoxious
"if you don't understand why apple is popular you must lack empathy and social skills"
what the ****?
