"We can no longer successfully defend Apple's new (screw the customers/profits first) direction, and Tim Cook's idiotic, indefensible company decisions. Quick, what do we do?"
"Call the critics racists! That oughta do it."
Ridiculous. That's not what I was addressing because that wasn't what the individuals here in question were talking about. I wasn't remotely commenting on anyone's opinions regarding any perceived, overarching new "profits-first" Apple strategy. I was addressing people that call all hip-hop -- and even all music, hip-hop or not, that they don't "connect" with for whatever reason (the artists?) -- "trash" and a "degeneration of society."
If you either aren't intelligent enough or are simply too lazy to actually address what I wrote re: the disturbing, exclusionary, intolerant, and frankly dumb rants of those I quoted, then don't bother responding to me. You didn't contribute anything to the discussion; instead, you completely shifted the goalposts because it was the easiest way you had to attack me. Laughable.
