I think it's funny when the Apple trolls assume I hate Apple or that I
don't own plenty of Apple products since they assume anyone who knows
anything about Apple must not own any Apple products. They're strange.

"It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been
fooled."

Hi badgolgerman,
What I've noticed about the Apple trolls is, like a child does, they
fabricate absurd excuses for everything they don't like about Apple.

When I tell them how Apple products work, they fabricate that I must know
that only because, in their minds, I don't own any Apple products.

WTF?

Who is that stupid?
I used to try to figure out Apple trolls because nobody is that stupid.

But, in reality - it turns out - these Apple trolls *are* that stupid.

Take Alan Browne. He hates all facts about Apple, right? That's fine.
Alan Browne doesn't have to like facts about Apple. That's his right.

But what's interesting is Alan Browne wants those facts about Apple to go
away, so what he does, like a child, is call people an "it" who state facts
about Apple products.

WTF?

Who is that stupid to think that by calling people an "it", that in and of
itself negates all facts about Apple products that Alan Browne simply
hates.

Notice that the trend with all these Apple trolls is similar.
They own the mind of small children when they try to form a defense against
facts.

They think these facts will go away if they call people an "it".
Who is that stupid?

The answer is, sadly: The Apple trolls are.

When I was growing up, those who were not clearly a “he” or “she” were
often referred to as an “it”. With the prevalence of transsexuals and
wokism today, not to mention DEI initiatives in the federal and corporate
worlds, people have been indoctrinated into the idea that there are more
physical genders than just male and female. Yet when you go to the doctor’s
office and fill out forms, they always want to know what your real sex is
and not what you want to be “identified” as.

In any case, since this is Usenet and it’s hard to actually see people, he
may be using gender ambiguous terms such as “it” to describe people he
doesn’t really know. Maybe he’s trying to be respectful in the same manner
as when someone addresses a lady as Ms. rather than Miss or Mrs. when not
knowing their marital status.

Or maybe you’re actually right about him and I’m wrong to give him the
benefit of the doubt.

You could be correct that Alan Browne, of all the Apple trolls, is so woke
that he wonders what gender I am, so he calls me an "it"; but I doubt it.

When Alan Browne calls someone an "it", that's his childish brain working
overtime to somehow, any way he can, negate the validity of the facts.

Who is that stupid to think someone being on Usenet for decades (on many
other groups also) is going to be "offended" by Alan calling him an "it"?

This, & other observations are how I know the Apple trolls have low IQs.
These Apple trolls know absolutely nothing about anything - not just Apple.

Classic Apple trolls:
1. Jolly Roger <===> Lewis (thank God he's gone)
2. Alan Baker <===> Joerg Lorenz
3. Haemactylus <===> Your Name <===> -hh
4. Alan Browne <===> Chris <===> JF Mezei (thank God he's gone)
5. nospam <===> he is in a category of his own (thank God he's gone)

The sooner these Apple trolls leave this ng, the sooner it becomes normal.

What's strange is you hate Apple and keep buying their products!

Even if he wasn't already a well-known moronic troll, anyone who thinks
$250 is a "stocking stuffer" is obviously an insane idiot anyway.

It's well known on this newsgroup for years that I've given out electronics
as stocking stuffers, and that I own plenty of Apple products myself.

That's why I find it intriguing that you Apple trolls constantly claim that
I know so much about Apple products because you think I don't own them.

Only Apple trolls are *that* stupid.

But I understand why you Apple trolls say that.

It's because it's you Apple trolls who hate what Apple is - not me.

So to make the truth about Apple go away, you low IQ uneducated Apple
trolls come up with the first childish excuse you can think of.

Which is that you state I can't possibly own Apple products simply because
I know so much more about them than any of you Apple trolls who own them.

But the fact simply is you Apple trolls know nothing about anything.

That you would be bigoted about trans people seems completely on-brand
for you.

I don’t think it’s kind and loving to lie to people with mental health
issues.

Just the other day I had to fill out paperwork for an online pharmacy and
also paperwork for a Red Cross blood donation. They both asked for my
assigned sex at birth. That pretty much tells you what the medical field
thinks about it.

I don't think you're qualified to determine what is a mental health
issue and what is not.

It tells you what is necessary for them to know in a MEDICAL context,
you unmitigated ass.

Ramblings of an idiot.

And yet, my sage and well-documented observation that the Apple trolls hate
the truth about Apple products is right on the money, is it not?

Maybe I'm a lot smarter than the people you Apple trolls interact with.

Think about that when you consider I know you better than you know
yourself.
