Im convinced im the only person in earth that hates rgb stuff.
Imagine there is a group that does everything in it’s power to block every positive change there could be.
Imagine further that the same group also does everything in it’s power to change every positive thing into a negative.
Now imagine that >48% of people vote for that group.
And finally imagine you in a place like that.
Honestly, unimaginable.

I’m a dev myself and I get that everyone needs to be compensated, but right now I have only one thought:
“You either die a hero or live long enough to become the villain.”
Wait, are some of you people really this naive? Did you guys actually believe 🍏 reasoning? They even started reasoning that way after getting caught.
“Hey guys, let’s slow down every iPhone substantially so the newest one looks incredibly fast (even tho we use nearly the same hardware), so buyers have more of a reason to buy the newest iPhone.” - basically planned obsolescence.
OR
“Hey guys, let’s slow down every iPhone substantially (except the newest one for w/e reason), so that the life expectancy of every iPhone rises substantially and people don’t have to buy new iPhones in the years to come.”
Like c’mon guys.
