          Every good nation is politically hostile to the US, it’s history of genocide and unrestrained war makes it a social pariah that is only tolerated by countries so that they don’t get invaded.

          That being said Apple is headquartered in Ireland like all multinational tech companies. It was founded in the US, but legally it’s an Irish company.

          Also that no regard for IP thing mostly affects foreign IP, you can just apply for a Chinese patent and get legal protection there, China just doesn’t trust other countries patent and IP protection processes, which is especially fair for the US, the land of patent and copyright trolls.

            You should make your account on .ml or hexbear, you’ll fit right in! What a ridiculous take.

            If you live anywhere in the west, sounds like you should move to a more aligned country and see how you like it.

              No, people fleeing their country instead of improving it tend to be liberals and other such conservatives.
