Apple cancelling Jon Stewart was shortsighted & petty, did Apple expect he wouldn't discuss them?

    🔴🔴🔴 2021 REPAIR WHITEPAPER: tinyurl.com/58b2px54 🔴🔴🔴 This is what I was referring to in the video, for anyone interested.
    There is that famous Thomas Sowell line where he said that when he was a young intern, he ran something all the way up the chain of command of government, and as a 90-year-old man, he says, _"to this day, I patiently await their reply."_
    I understand how he feels. Three years in, never got so much as an _"aye thanks bro"_

Now all of a sudden if I do that the phone/battery might EXPLODE lol I just have to ask them "what are you people doing to the phones that they are basically incendiary devices now?"

"You will own nothing and be happy" is an ideal based on convenience culture, where people can choose the path of least resistance and give up their rights in the process.

    After hearing he didn’t talk to Lina Khan it cemented my commitment to remove Apple from my life over the next 2 years. I’m just one small customer, I don’t matter. I spend about 1200/yr in Apple products. But I’m done. Maybe if enough folks do the same, Apple will start to realize we matter and to stop this nonsense of pushing on the little person.

That's why you only hear good things about them and in the beginning anyone online that said anything about it would get attacked by Apple people. Thankfully nowadays people have woken up and have been pointing out all the stuff that they've done to the point where even the government recognized their Anti-Market/Anti-Consumer practices need to start to be curbed as they grab more and more market share.

    The reason I found for the cancellation was, according to Variety and the New York Times, "The New York Times reported that the duo had disagreements over topics that were to be covered in the third season, including A.I. and China. Members of the U.S. House of Representatives later questioned Apple CEO Tim Cook about whether the tech giant’s decision to cancel Stewart’s show was because the host may have been planning an upcoming episode about China."

Listen to some of the billionaires that fund startups, they ONLY fund ones with plans to be monopolies. These companies also don't like democracy, it is inconvenient to them.

    Hi, Louis. Always glad to see another one of your videos show up in my notifications. Keep fighting the good fight for Right to Repair legislation and keeping vital information free from corporate censorship. The consolidation of mass media in this nation began in earnest during the Reagan administration and it has been extremely detrimental to the public interest. It's good to see Lina Khan is finally stepping forward to reverse the Reagan DOJ's legacy of favoring "natural monopolies" at the expense of the public.
    Here's a relevant quote about the importance of a free press in a free society:
    “The moment we no longer have a free press, anything can happen. What makes it possible for a totalitarian or any other dictatorship to rule is that the people are not informed; how can you have an opinion if you are not informed? If everybody lies to you, the consequence is not that you believe lies, but rather that nobody believes anything any longer. This is because lies, by their very nature, have to be changed, and a lying government has constantly to rewrite its own history. On the receiving end you receive not only one lie - but you get a great number of lies, depending on how the political wind blows. And a people who can no longer believe anything cannot make up its mind. It is deprived not only of its ability to act but also of its ability to think and to judge. And with such a people you can do as you please.”
    - Hannah Arendt

    I don’t watch Apple TV and I’m not gonna pay for it… I’m happy John Stewart is back on places I can watch him. I watch it on UA-cam 😂

    It's funny how some people are so ignorant and attack those who try and defend the common good.
    They hate jon but love the billionaire class.
    Such stupidity you cant make up....

      They've been told since birth that the billionaire class has made their life what it is, and that without the billionaires, they will be dead. It's kind of how America talks up that whole "freedom" thing, and ends up being one of the most oppressive countries in the history of the world.

      And we have plenty of people hating on John just because they've bought into the two party system brainrot and their party says "he bad !" Even though John has literally criticized both libs and conservatives and has stood up for the likes of 9/11 workers.

      The problem is that we all have a "head canon" about how The world works. We are after all pattern recognition machines.
      When something doesn't fit the pattern we try to fit it in there.
      Being a card carrying Jeffersonian the idea that class exists is a hard sell.
      But present examples suggest I'm mistaken

      I mean you can dislike both, and still think apple is on the wrong.
      I could go my whole life without seeing Jon Stewart's face again and not regret a single thing.
      Apple still sucks and they made a mistake, and I hope Jon can sue over breach of contract.

    Can someone please explain to me how Last Week tonight's John Oliver gets away with stuff HBO doesn't like but Jon Stewart can't?

    • @Xoulrath_
      @Xoulrath_ Місяць тому +6

      The show gets views and views get money. Until it becomes an actual problem for them, HBO execs will gladly count their money and let Oliver say whatever the fuck he wants to about them.

      ​@@mogalixiryour culture war has nothing to do with. HBO simply doesn't have the attack surface Apple does, and therefore all the business daddy type jokes Oliver makes don't cause any real damage to HBO.

    Stewart used to roll over for this stuff his whole damn life, and now is at the end of his career and knows it.
