Accidental Truthspotting: Computers and Politics
by Brett Stevens
Ah, good. So, Windows = McCain, Apple = Obama?
I'll take that.
There's always the slow, steady, boring, functional. Windows is pretty non-exciting. But it did unify computer hardware and software, gave us a stable platform, and is backwards compatible.
Apple is flashy, full of "new" ideas, hip to entertainment, etc. but without substance. There's a parallel there to politics: McCain was an accurate plodder, while Obama is a flashy but corrupt insider, a hipster.
Wonder if there's more. Classical = McCain, Jazz = Obama; Modernism = McCain, postmodernism = Obama.

Yeah....
I don't know much about American politics, nor will I ever, I have better things to do with my time, but I just had to ask, what in the fuck are you talking about? McCain and Obama are the same morons back by nearly the same coroprate interests that have always been there, McCain is not windows and Obama is not Mac, firstly thats a retarded comparison as computer brands and politicans have nothing to do with one another and if you did happen to find a parrellel its so miniscule it should not even be taken into account. McCain is a tool and so is Obama, same shit different pile, to use another example BigMac and Double Bacon Extra Cheese Mac, both are bad for you and you shouldent be eating them. McCain is a goddamn cretin and Obama more so.
Now if you are being saracstic or something of that nature then please make it more obvious, as this kind of absurd political backing has no place on this site and I for one would like it to remain so for a long time.
Now, if you will excuse me, I really dont know what the fuck possesed me to write this goddamn paragraph but I have to get back to actual life.
whoa
He was being sarcastic!
Yeah!
Yeah!
I'll have to Agree
I'll have to Agree with Aleksander on this one... they are both the same useless trash with a different label. McCain is just as incompetent as Obama, I wouldnt go so far as to compare their worth with the Mac vs. PC conflict.
It would be a disappointing
It would be a disappointing anti-climax if Corrupt's final answer was to vote for the Republicans.
