Whether you like something or not has nothing to do with whether it is courageous or not.

Whether you like something or not has nothing to do with whether it is courageous or not.
- xg15 8y agoI don't disagree with you, I'd just question why that particular kind of courageousness is relevant to the discussion.
- jamesrcole 8y agoMy point is that there isn't some different kind of courage that separates this from everyday notions of "courage". Many people mock the idea that removing the headphone jack required any courage.
- yellowapple 8y agoNo, we're mocking the idea that Apple would use "courage" as an excuse for stupidity while also pointing out that they go hand in hand. Yeah, a guy running up to a bear and punching it in the face is "courageous", but it should be no surprise when the bear gets sick of the guy's antics and decides that it's maul o'clock. In this simile, the consumers are the bear, and Apple is the moron punching it.
- jamesrcole 8y agoSay they're stupid all you like, but whether something is "courageous" and whether something is "stupid" are completely separate issues.
