well Foxcom salaries for people who build surface and playstation are lower...Do you expect him to change China labour law? Are you are aware that Foxcom is a contractor? They are very transparent about it, there is a webpage dedicate with annual reports.

Actually I am. Any company that is for the people and planet is my type of company. It is what makes me want to switch and buy Apple products. Having any kind of ethics and moral compass by a large Corp and it's top level Ceo's is good thing.
But... but... he just said people aren't interested... so.... sorry I have to go lie down.

How much self awareness do you have to lack, to call a group a hate group and say they embrace degenerates...? The mind boggles.

Yes, it's called corporate social responsibility and most big companies are signed up to it. It's the kind of thing you do when you want to be engaged with the wider world (sorry if this sounds like it's aimed at you, it's more shock at the low numbers of people here actually in favour of a company being against racism, but hey... 'Internet')

Industrial Engineering - which lead him to supply chain .
People need to understand what industrial engineering is
Is this posting also from you? https://forums.macrumors.com/thread...d-and-mac-event.2150686/page-33#post-26719592
Well, clearly some people are, or he wouldn't be getting recognition and awards.
Perhaps "people" care less about what a gaggle of obsessive types on the internet whose hobby is buying electronics think.
The comments here are rediculous. Guy wins award for standing up to hate. How do people respond? With hate!
Some Apple fans here are a prime example of what is wrong with the World today. Full of self importance and no compassion.

Yep. It was handy that they liked such a wackadoodle comment, because it made it easier to ignore them in bulk.
Have not been as satisfied with iOS since Forstall (not necessarily Jobs).
I like Cook. The world is changing and iOS is stuck between 2007 and 2018 (imagine 1996 and 2018... same time-span).
It has more features, but is more buggy. Easier to use, harder to fix.
Has nothing to do with the values. They haven't changed much. Jobs picked Cook.
"Lack of innovation" is a lie.

Steve wasn’t an engineer. He didn’t have a degree of any kind. Disregarding education I’m not sure he even had an engineering mind. Bill Gates looked down on him because he couldn’t code. He didn’t make or directly design anything himself (to my knowledge). He himself said that his ability was to assemble a team that could do great things. I’d add “vision” to his abilities. But engineer? No.
1. Steve Jobs was never an engineer.
2. No matter how look at it there's absolutely ZERO wrong with accepting an anti-hate reward, and absolutely nothing wrong with a CEO having a moral compass.

No he wasn't. Jobs was never an engineer while Cook literally has a degree in engineering. Try again.

It's not political. There's no way to spin accepting an anti-hate award as "politics" you're just a genuinely terrible person.
[doublepost=1542401007][/doublepost]
How about no? I trust Cook's judgement over yours, considering Apple is currently the most successful it's ever been.

Low effort trolling.
No, it’s all politics. The ADL born is just a liberal “social justice warrior” get-together and it’s not “anti-hate” it’s really just a front to censor people they don’t agree with. They labeled a meme (pepe the frog) a hate symbol. They’re the one who gets all upset and call something racist when it isn’t.
No, the ADL is anti-hate. It just so happens that most conservatives lack a moral compass and tend to be bad people in general, so they apparently associate compassion and moral decency with liberals. Also, "social justice warrior" is a made up snarl word used by reactionaries and people on the alt-right spectrum to refer to anyone left of Hitler. If you want to have a productive discussion you shouldn't be flinging buzzwords around in bad faith.
And their decision to label pepe the frog a hate symbol is an accurate one, because despite the wishes of its creator it was co-opted by one of the largest neo-nazi/white supremacist groups in the world.
With you here. There are people who think Jews shouldn't fight back against antisemitism.
Too broad a brush. There's more to conservatism than the alt-right Kekistan types who've popped up here and gone straight into my ignores, fortunately, and it's been my pleasure to know many conservatives who are just as nauseated by the antisemitism and racism of the alt-right as I am.

You are all very Strong women and Brave "men" on your first world problems glasshouse. Meanwhile in Syria the child casualties the last couple of years have reached astronomical numbers. But who cares.....it’s all about our gender issues and hate speech these days. The funny thing is that these kind of groups and movements divide us and spread hate among people more than actually bringing us all together.
