My sister says that’s very selfish of me.

Definitely not as bad as me my first thought was to imagine Jeff Bezos getting to the end of the iPhone 4S presentation then saying:
“and another thing, Steve Jobs is dead”

Like most of us, I did not know Steve Jobs…I hope he was right with God. I attempted to contact him twice via email regarding a business decision he made that I did not agree with. I understand that he was probably an incredibly busy man. And he was remarkable in many ways. However, business accumen, creativity, and inventiveness is so substitute for morality. When given the opportunity to stand up for righteousness, he failed. He allowed political correctness and a very small, but aggressive minority, to bully him into making a very unjust decision: I am referring to the “Manhattan Declaration” app that was initially approved by the department that reviews potential apps. It received a rating of 4 stars. But because a very vocal minority viewed the Manhattan Declaration’s authors as a “hate” group’ Steve Jobs and Apple pulled the app…even thought their is absolutely nothing in it that could be interpreted as hateful, immoral, or even angry. I found this reprehensible.

What is this “Manhattan Declaration” about? I never heard of it.

A Q&A app that tells you you are wrong if you support gay rights. Some people got all testy about it.
And no, you’re not a bad person. I felt kind of the same way about Jacques Derrida and Jean Baudrillard.

Sounds like both those who created the app and those who protested it are idiots.
Derrida doesn’t do anything for me. Baudrillard, though, is fun. So they are like Jobs and Bezos for me respectively. 🙂

You are Aspie, as speculations about Steve Jobs as well. You thought honestly what you thought and it is the way Steve Jobs was (from those who describes him): straight, intense, “not nice” – in a good ways:-),may be arrogant,but so intense and direct – so Aspie are not “bad” or “good”.
Straight and thinking and speaking straight. It is in a different system of values. :-)you are good:-)
