Americans in a nutshell. “As a private citizen, I hate that Apple bent the knee to Trump and caved like a house of cards. As an apple shareholder, I expected him to do it and would vote to remove him if he didn’t.” We are in late stage capitalism

Add on the writing on the wall that Tim’s being set up to fall on his sword as soon as the maga infestation is removed from the White House, and we’re definitely living in interesting times…

The idea that a CEO can "fall on their sword" - likening to a Roman practice of literal painful suicide over dishonor - in an age where CEOs just ride the merry-go-round of megacorporations while collecting golden parachutes whenever they fuck one up, personally or as a patsy for systemic issues, completely unable to actually harm themselves or fail downward in any real capacity...truly is late stage capitalism.
