Imagine prostrating yourself to Trump in this embarrassing way. Sheesh.
I don’t get why people are NOW saying he’s trying to appease trump. He’s been doing it for years. He was front row at his inauguration right next to other billionaires.
Bribe. The word you’re looking for
Definitely, as after this it was announced that Apple would not be affected by the 100% semiconductor tariffs.
Tim Cuck
Not a “gift”. It was a BRIBE !!
literal fucking bribery
It’s what conservatives crave.
PowerBribe™
When you’re rich and powerful as fuck but still bend the knee to a felon rapist pedophile.
All of America’s most “powerful” people are little fucking bitches. Little bitches are calling the shots and representing us to the world. Jesus Christ how pathetic is this country going to get?
Conservatives: Hold my beer.
reality is often disappointing.
Tim Cook, and Apple, is supporting a pedophile. Remember that when you walk into an Apple Store, if you can afford to.
“Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai visited Trump at Mar-a-Lago after the election, and Google donated $1 million to the inauguration fund”
So is Google and every major company
real big yet you participate in society energy
You’re right it’s both now can we fuck off with the “buh buh buh the other company!” bullshit?
Article is about Apple not Google.
On nerdy sites like Lemmy people tend to fawn over Google and they can do no wrong
And every slight Apple does is The Worst Ever
If Google does the same thing, out come the excuses. 😀

Uhhhh… What. My experience has been the literal opposite. People here hate Google
And still rock an Android phone proudly
I don’t know about “proudly.” Preferred to Apple? Sure.
Simping the worlds largest ad company is weird to me
But that’s just me 🤷🏻♂️
That may have been true a few years ago but not anymore. Google gets lots of hate on Lemmy, Reddit, and various other tech sites.
I buy pixel phones, because out of the sea of bullshit, it’s at least capable of being rooted/flash to a new os. The PinePhone sadly isn’t ready.
I don’t use apple for the same reason I don’t use fisher price as an adult. You are free to use your technology made for babies that’s beside the point. The point is that the article in discussion is about Tim Cook and Apple providing a recent bribe to Trump.
Your comment is providing no value. You are attempting whataboutism and really shows the type of person you are more than anything.
To be clear, if googl was caught bribing and someone said “buh buh buh Apple!” Id be saying the same thing. Stop sucking dick like they owe you something to take a side.
When Google bribes Trump with a 24k gold gift let’s discuss Google then ok?
So if it’s only an 18k carat gift it’s just fine? Because Google are the good guys
Is the article about Google or Apple? Really easy question for you.
I bet most of the people here replying in the comments are typing on what helped pay for that gold plated ass kissing device.
Ya but I am pretty sure Google has done a lot to help Trump. Any big tech company wants to be on the good side of Trump.
With the degree of information, and capacity to profile individuals at scale and model complex systems, Google likely knew Trump would be in the white house long before anyone else. They fired up the bribery train early on.
Exactly, they all are sucking that orange teet now.
Maybe if we were on reddit, here I really don’t think that’s true.
we’re gonna need more luigis.
I understood this reference! Probably because I, too, am a dinosaur.
i loved that show. ended so dark
Worst part was we all knew the ending but didn’t see it coming
Ready player 2!

an army of them is what we need.

Whoa whoa there, slow down. You’re talking crazy. Let’s be reasonable.
The only way to get any sort of reliable data is to let BOTH camps go nuts and see which one gets more attention and results.
Wasting effort and resources on either will bring less results.
You do know that they will buy more? Legislators are a dime a dozen for oligarchs.
Because the CEOs will biy the new people. Better to off both.
Republicans don’t have the spine to run at risk of death, and elections only happen every two years meaning until then DNC would have the first real supermajority since 1979.
Tax them into the dirt, then there will never be more billionaires.
And Trump is just going to screw him over anyway, bribe or no bribe.
US oligarchs are friends with regime?
enthusiastic dick sucking noises
His name really is Tim Apple now.
Release the Epstein files
Surely they will throw him in prison!
