    But we're all supposed to ignore these. They are all different. And so
    is the iPhone.

    Do you know why *iKooks always blame someone else* for Apple's own flaws?

    I do.

    HINT: Nobody on the _adult_ OS newsgroups uses Apple as an excuse for why
    their product has whatever flaws it has - it's something only iKooks do.

    Note also that I didn't blame anyone at all. What I did do was point out
    some very real examples of numerous Android phones overheating in
    response to some idiot's asinine claim that any overheating at all means
    a very specific bug supposedly hasn't been fixed - in the context of the
    larger ongoing thread where resident trolls have falsely claimed the
    iPhone 15 is supposedly "defective", even after Apple, Instagram, and
    others have released *software* fixes to resolve overheating issues.

    Wally (Arlen) desperately wants to change the subject and sling insults
    as a deflection. Trolls gonna troll. 😉

    Ah, but you did.

    I've studied you strange iKooks, Jolly Roger - so I know you rather well.

    You child-like iKooks have only seven excuses for the truth about Apple.
    One of those seven excuses for Apple's flaws is to blame someone else!

    You _hate_ that the iPhone 15 flaws remain even after Apple's "fix", JR.

    What you clearly did is called "whataboutism" and it's a common tactic, JR.
    <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whataboutism>

    What you're _desperate_ to do is _deflect_ criticism away from Apple.

    What I did do was point out

    Why is it that _only_ the child-like Apple newsgroups do what you do?

    Nobody on the adult Android ng says "Bbbbbuuuuttttt *Apple did it too*".
    Nobody on the adult Windows ng says "Bbbbbuuuuttttt *Apple did it too*".
    Nobody on the adult Linux ng says "Bbbbbuuuuttttt *Apple did it too*".

    Why is it _only_ the Apple newsgroup is desperate to deflect blame away
    from Apple by using the obvious tactic of WhatAboutism to derail blame?

    Whenever Apple's flaws are discussed you iKooks are _desperate_ to
    deflect the blame to Google or Samsung - instead of addressing the issues.

    https://www.merriam-webster.com/wordplay/whataboutism-origin-meaning

    Whataboutism gives a clue to its meaning in its name. It is not merely the changing of a subject ("What about the economy?") to deflect away from an earlier subject as a political strategy; it's essentially a reversal of accusation, arguing that an opponent is guilty of an offense just as
    egregious or worse than what the original party was accused of doing,
    however unconnected the offenses may be.

    The tactic behind whataboutism has been around for a long time.
    Rhetoricians generally consider it to be a form of tu quoque, which means
    "you too" in Latin and involves charging your accuser with whatever it is you've just been accused of rather than refuting the truth of the
    accusation made against you. Tu quoque is considered to be a logical
    fallacy, because whether or not the original accuser is likewise guilty of
    an offense has no bearing on the truth value of the original accusation.

    Whataboutism adds a twist to tu quoque by directing its energies into establishing an equivalence between two or more disparate actions, thereby defaming the accuser with the insinuation that their priorities are
    backwards.

    It's important to understand the mentality of the typical Apple owner.

    Apple owners don't think before they purchase the product.
    They're actually completely ignorant of the product.

    What they do is follow the herd.
    Apple owners, en masse, are herd animals.

    Now what's the biggest danger to the herd?
    Think about that.

    Once you understand Apple owners, you instantly realize why only they
    attack every truth about their operating system by blaming someone else.

    This "Whataboutism" never happens on the adult operating system newsgroups. Only on Apple newsgroups.

    Think about why.

    HINT: It's the same reason only Apple newsgroup posters gloat about profits when the fact is it's impossible to make those profits off intelligent consumers.
