      > Strawman He isn't arguing against a strawman, i.e. a misrepresented argument, he's saying the issue is not what OP claims and saying the issue is something else. > Ad Hominem He isn't using insults in place of an argument, he is including insults with his argument, so it's not an ad hominem. > False Dilemma He isn't falsely reducing the choices down to two or a few, he's just asking why Apple's customers don't act a certain way or have a problem with something. > Hasty Generalization What is it you think he is incorrectly generalizing to support his overall argument? > Appeal to Emotion He might be including emotional language, but he isn't relying on people feeling a particular way to agree with him at all. There is no appeal to emotion. > One more for free; Begging the Question... What question do you think he is ignoring/assuming to have been answered in making his claim?
