It’s time to boycott Apple
I've been doing that for decades, the last apple product I used was an Apple ][e. Couldn't resist that sweet Oregon Trail action at the time.

iClass-traitor.
He's the CEO of Apple, my guy. He's serving his class
That's probably 2% of their holiday bonus!
What a little bitch..
You best start believing in technofeudal distopias, you're living in one.
They’re all “donating” the same amount.
And also this is the largest inaugural fund in history. In comparison to his previous which was $107m this is so far over $150m.
Considering Bidens and both of Obamas were between $50m and $70m is this not ringing alarm bells with anyone? Or is this something to “look” in to in like 7 years time when no one gives a shit.
Beggars belief.

What I'm curious about is, according to the article, Tim Apple is donating from this own money and won't be donating Apple's money. Why make it a personal donation and not a corporate one?
While others are donating as companies (don't agree with this either but different subject), none are doing it as a personal donation. As the face of Apple, he won't get far claiming that it doesn't reflect Apple as a company, so why not just m make it corporate? Unless it's for tax reasons?

Corruption as always. Regular donations ensure that whoever is currently holding power isn't going to cause [regulatory] problems
It's worse than that. There's a level of hypocrisy here in that a company marketing itself as inclusive has a CEO who is donating to a far right, authoritarian slush fund. This isn't business as usual.

Tim Apple*
Can't wait for the leopard to eat this face.
Fuck that. Not cool.
corporations will always prioritize tax cuts and deregulation
I guess it was that or a blow job.
Way to go, Tim Apple
