   What's happening here is classic because Apple owners are so filled with   
   propaganda that they don't realize things are done differently on Android.   
      
   Apple owners are like uneducated low-class Russian proletariat who have   
   never been informed how people live on the outside of their walled gardens.   
      
   Think of this Jolly Roger, for example, as a fat stunted fifth grader who   
   was held back for years and who has no teeth and no education at all; what   
   he wants Apple to provide him, just like Russians do, is safety & security.   
      
   He's _proud_ to be an Apple owner because his whole life of drinking vodka   
   and getting drunk, he has been told by everyone around him he's stupid.   
      
   But Apple loves him.   
   Just as Putin loves the uneducated Russian proletariat.   
      
   Apple raises his self esteem - which is critical to understand about JR.]   
   Any question about Apple that he hates, is an attack against him.   
      
   A simple question... to iKooks... is as existential as it is to Putin.   
      
   The Apple owners don't realize there is a world outside the walled garden   
   where you do NOT have to log into an account just to get the apps to work.   
      
   The mistake was in the original poster connecting the two worlds, which is   
   like asking this question of people in Ukraine (Android) & Russia (Apple).   
      
   Q: Isn't this Apple camera app the greatest thing since sliced bread?   
      
   Russian Answer:   
    Tim Cook tells me that it's normal for apps to only work inside of the   
    walled garden so I'm fine with being a prisoner of the Apple Gulag.   
      
   Ukrainian Answer:   
    Why would I use any app that requires me to maintain an active account   
    on a Russian server when Russia doesn't have my best interest in mind?   
   --   
   Based on their actions, this is how you should think of the Apple iKooks...
