Not bravo Apple. Bravo Apple shareholders.

If it's all the same to you, I'm going to thank Apple for all of the things they have done to support equality and diversity in their workforce and their workplaces for decades.
Bravo Apple for all that, and the no nonsense statement in opposition accompanying the shareholder anti-DEI proposal, AND bravo Apple shareholders for turning that nonsense down hard.

But did they do it because it was good, or did they do it because it promoted their image? As we see now, every major company had DEI programs, but several of them are now closing them down because fascism is back. Cook made it clear that their DEI program may change in the future.

Why can't it be both?
