That was exactly what I meant to say. I felt that he was making presenting a positive spin on a tech company he likes.
Anyone that spins a story that they know they are spinning are being "disingenuous" to themselves.

Some of us think it is significant. The reply was someone talking about my disuse of an english word. I replied that was exactly what I intended to use. I can't seem to figure out if your defending another person or attacking me or both/neither.
