Good old-fashoin racism from Apple
|
 
I would need the footage to extend to before that conversation to form any conclusions.
This tells me nothing about their positioning, body language and behavior prior to the disagreement. Otherwise I'm making assumptions based on not wanting to appear racist.

What do you call it when you use the behavior of a single employee to tar an entire company, much less a "backwards-thinking" country?
I wouldn't judge a company based on the actions of a single employee.

There's already a lot I hate about Apple. And these views are not the Australian way.
If I ran a shop, and someone turned away possible customers without having a REALLY good reson for it, I'd fire them.
Though it's hard to say exactly what spooked the security guy. Were they just loitering around? What happened? I don't know.  RE: Good old-fashoin racism from Apple

Another case of white people clutching their pearls at some black people. Where's the news?
It's sad, they don't even look threatening, it's just 5 boys in school uniform. A white person could probably walk in there with their hood up and not get stopped, but black kids walk in and get stopped whatever they're wearing. Tbh though apart from me owning an ipod nano I got on discount and using itunes, I don't understand the Apple hype. These hipsters love flashing their iphones around as though they think it makes us jealous. *clap clap* well done mate, you just spent £500 on a phone that does everything my £100 phone does, short of a few exclusive apps. Well done.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie

I don't understand the Apple hype either, especially when there are very good arguments for saying android is a better system. I mean abdriod is faster to incorporate new technology and is a far more open ecosystem and is much more open source. Not to mention an android phone now is just as easy to use and a top of the line android phone with better hardware is like half the cost.
I personally think apple now is just a status symbol, that says you have money.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player, That struts and frets his hour upon the stage, And then is heard no more. It is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing.

Simply claiming to have a policy that doesn't exist in procedures and practises is completely disingenuous on the behalf of Apple. And as for "what spooked them" - nothing since they were denied entry to the store.  |
