No, the matter of fact is that Apple would survive no matter what. But would they (the people involved, not the company, Cook & other executives) make as much money if they went against the administration compared to how much they could make while playing along? Also no, and is why you're seeing people bowing down, they personally make much more money then.
- yoyohello13 9mo agoSurvive was probably too strong a word. But I stand by my point that, right now, business success is closely tied to how much Trump likes you.
- embedding-shape 9mo ago> business success is closely tied to how much Trump likes you And I'd still make the same point I've done so many times before; sometimes maybe there are more important things than "business makes much money so I make much money".
- yoyohello13 9mo agoYes 100%! I’m not saying I condone or agree with what’s happening. Just pointing out the reality.
- embedding-shape 9mo ago> Just pointing out the reality I'm just disagreeing with that "To survive as a large entity during this administration you have to kiss the ring" is actually the reality. The reality as I see it is that individuals want to make money, lots of money, and authoritarianism is more favorable for that. They'll still make lots of money if they fight against it. But they'll make less.
