I just want to point out I started typing this questionnaire before https://www.businessinsider.com/tim-cook-response-trump-relationship-criticism-2026-3 went live, and timestamps have us within 10 minutes of each other. I had not seen that and this wasn't a take on that.
But having posted, giving my feed a quick scroll, I just saw that article's headline (haven't read it proper).
Coincidence!
Sign of the times that it's that much of A Thing!
"I'm not a political person on either side," Cook said. "I'm not political."
That... that's not what political means. That's what partisan means.
Tim Cook isn't stupid. He knows what words mean. Saying that, like that, is talking like a politician - lying softly or misleading without stating an obvious falsehood.
There's nothing more extremist - literally nothing - in our world than being "apolitical".
@Fishercat How do you define "is"? 
Please use the broadest definition for the purpose of this inquiry..If you can think of a way that something might be "an issue" then it qualifies for the set.
@Fishercat Yes, I posted it with more lighthearted intent before seeing the highly relevant news, and should've chosen a better word or phrase, not included quite so much noise in the answer set, and so on.
I made mistakes!
