What's a Patreon?

Patreon - Wikipedia
a monetization platform operated by Patreon, Inc., that provides business tools for content creators to run a subscription service and sell digital products. It helps artists and other creators earn a recurring income by providing rewards and perks to its subscribers. Patreon charges a commission of 9 to 12 percent of creators' monthly income, in addition to payment processing fees.

So, a sort of middleman used to do paid subscriptions to a "content creator."
 
I remember when Buffett bought Apple one of the times because I bought it right behind him. I follow Buffett. Jim Cramer I ignore. Buffett and I paid $93 for our stock. I have been tempted to sell it a number of times.
 
Our free market system is alive and well.

Seems odd that some criticize companies are participating in the market...unless you have no understanding of economics, then you don't know, what you need to know...and can name-call and gripe all you want! Ignorance is bliss...
 
^^^Because you've overlooked MANY corporations that are TRULY evil and why respond to what is obviously a viewpoint that is totally exaggerated. You post the unsupported utube nonsense(which I didn't even bother to look at) that fits your world view which seems like one of an angry old man that is having a hard time w the rate of change that we're undergoing right now.


RJR Reynolds.......a company that intentionally addicted people to their deadly product(and one that happened to kill my mother at age 67.)

Purdue Pharma LP......... "The company manufactured pain medicines such as hydromorphone, fentanyl, codeine, hydrocodone and oxycodone, also known by its brand name, OxyContin."

"In 2007, Purdue paid out one of the largest fines ever levied against a pharmaceutical firm for misleading the public about how addictive the drug OxyContin was"

Please discuss those 2 corps in relation to Apple and compare and contrast the devastation they have wrought.

Then we can move on to gun and alcohol manufacturers.

Most everything is a long jawing session now days.
If Ignorance is bliss then silence is golden bliss not rain.
DJ’s can’t shut up between songs they play.
Everyone is the WolfMan now, content doesn’t apply.
Even the time before the ball is ready to be snapped seems stretched.
Jawing seems to be the next sport. Endlessly !

Apple are invulnerable. People don't care they used slave labor to make their phones, that in some factories they had to put up suicide nets, and that they charge far too much for what they offer. Apple became a status symbol, and so get forgiven anything they do.
 
While I agree with Againstthegrain that the tobacco companies, and pharmaceutical companies that intentionally addict customers who are in pain, top the list for evil -- Apple sounds pretty terrible. Suicide nets?

So, I don't have a cell phone and my PC is Dell. What should I boycott?
 
Well we have a lot of excessively overstated thread titles that express the OP's personal attitude. I don't think there's anything troll like about Dilettante.

Yes, everyone knows how inherently evil Apple is and has been for several decades. Now here we go again.

Everyone knows….blah, blah, blah

These statements always trigger warning bells in my head. And they bring up memories of the many times the “everyone knows” statement has proven false.
