In all respect, Macrumors is a place where we talk about Apple and the tech world in general. I don’t think that people should post inflammatory political comments that are too liberal OR too conservative. Instead of focusing on what divides us in America, why don’t we just focus on what brings us together, which is a desire to talk about Apple and tech. Just my thoughts, it hurts me to see all the hatred.
Lol. We're not all Americans!
Firstly, as
@Apple fanboy points out, above, we're not all Americans.
Indeed, I'll admit that some of the American-centric stuff on the forum irks me at times.
Secondly, as others - such as
@decafjava - have suggested, avoid that section of the forum if it does not appeal to you.
Thirdly, it is impossible to separate political matters from the rest of real life, - because political choices and decisions have an impact on what happens in real life - even in discussions ostensibly about the tech world and its products.
Online privacy? That is - or will be - a political (and perhaps commercial) choice and decision, one also with with security implications.
Outsourcing manufacturing (that is, tech companies outsourcing manufacturing) to third - and indeed, third world - countries with appalling labour practices? That is a political and an economic choice and decision.
Availing of unusually elastic tax regimes elsewhere? That, too, is a political - and economic - decision, and the way it will be addressed will also be a political (and economic) decision. And choice.
