Still less toxic overall than the dismissive and frankly dangerous attitude of covering one’s eyes and ears about a subject while instead making baseless, sweeping generalizations and assumptions.
What about just staying apolitical, just like Steve Jobs was?
Surely, Apple can't be serious about ordering this. Why give money to these corrupt two.
This wouldn't make me sign up for the service if Apple encourages people like these.

And, do please, share with us your thoughts about Cadet Bone Spurs?
A credit to the profession of arms, perhaps?
Well said.
Actually, he will vie for the position of worst president ever.
Agreed.
No, the most corrupt family in politics would be the Trump family.
Exactly.
She won the popular vote, quite substantially, which areas against the notion that she was "an unpopular" candidate.
And yes, I do know that achieving victory in the primitive political system (designed in the late 18th century to protect the interests of small states and slave holding states) known as the Electoral College is what matters.
(always the same old stuff)
🥱 The last few presidential runs have all been full of terrible people, we should be able to do so much better. If we're going to talk about primitive political systems, how about we discuss the better issue of the corrupt two party system currently infecting our government right now...but maybe in a more relevant thread.
Back onto the topic at hand, it is hilarious these two were chosen for the docuseries but not unexpected given current social trends. There's certainly nothing "gutsy" about them as they've never known what it's like to have to work for anything.

Typical posts complaining about a show they haven’t seen. You have made up your minds with no evidence.
pretty sad state we are in today.

No, I wrote that I found the show idea interesting, but I am pissed off that they are featuring a corrupt politician and despicable person to host it. And don't call me a "typical (MR) poster." I have never judged an Apple TV+ show negatively before watching it, including the Oprah shows. But there's such a thing as having an extremely toxic personality, who you would expect to turn people off if hired as a host. There's no world where I would watch this person lecture me.
Ha, but I must agree, that to pay Russians for a phoney hit piece on your opponent, then flip the script, plus deleting all of your incriminating emails takes real balls!
She is a hack, pure and simple.
As it happens, Hunter Biden wasn't running for office, - his father (and brother) were - whereas Cadet Bone Spurs (in other words, the deplorable Mr Trump) was very much seeking public office.
While a condition of "bone spurs" may indeed serve as a valid - or legitimate - ground for medical disqualification - thereby exempting one from having to serve in Vietnam, - my concern here isn't with bone spurs, per se, as with the fact that Mr Trump, who lies as naturally as he breathes, claimed to have the condition.
Moreover, given Mr Trump's pathological mendacity, I will reserve judgment as to the veracity of his claim - I think that receiving five deferrals - the last one of these for a what can only be considered to be a spurious bone spur condition - must rank as something of a record.
Re Mr Clinton, he never claimed to be in favour of the war, and - for that matter - neither did a pseudo-military education while busily posing and posturing in gaudy uniforms serve as a definition of identity for him, which was the case for Mr Trump. Instead, Mr Clinton won scholarships which enabled him to attend some of the world's best universities (and both Yale and Oxford fall into that category).
Nevertheless, if we are to take a look at the offspring of Mr Biden, might I refer some of you instead to Beau Biden, - and it is instructive that he has been overlooked in this discussion - who served his country with honour, courage and dignity, both as Attorney-General of Delaware and as an officer who served in Iraq.
What a strange comment. Being abused doesn't make someone "gutsy". Fighting back against your oppressor, and risking even more abuse, does.
Why tie these stories to the Clintons? Cant they find Accomplished women reporters to tell these stories.
Thats what is sad about the whole thing, its like always the same people who get these opportunities. Corporate wokeism. All about milking it.
Chelsea Clinton is a politician??? What? When did that happen? What branch of government office was she elected to?
Please let me know because I truly have no opinion of her. Nor do I know what exactly makes her toxic? Or what it is about her that bunches up underwears of people? Is it her last name, maybe??
I don’t like any politicians. In private they might be regular people but professionally they all scam, cheat and lie to maintain their political careers. The more nobler they appear the bigger the lies. Especially don’t trust the ones who use words like ‘the people’. It’s usually a code word for ‘donors and lobbyists’.
Well said.
While I will accept that Chelsea Clinton was born into what passes in the US for a privileged background, Hillary Rodham Clinton earned her university degrees and her law licence - and sat and achieved excellent grades in her exams - and practiced law, at a time when it was not easy for a womna, especially a womna from her background, to do so.
Moreover, she comfortably won election to the US Senate, and served as President Obama's Secretary of State.
So, no, unlike Mr Trump, who had to have everything handed to him, and failed at most of what he touched, Secretary Clinton worked for what she achieved.
Ad she still won the popular vote, for all that some on these threads and elsewhere moan at length about her lack of "likability".
I just cancelled my free year, I will not allow myself to counted as a subscriber to a service that would employ HRC or her entitled daughter.
That’s pretty sad. Seems you are painting Chelsea with the same brush as her parents.
Are you of the mind that children are guilty of the sins of the parents?
