Don't think I believe the apple vs windows thing, but the rest looks about right.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 4 months ago

It's not even a windows thing, it's specifically HP...which makes even less sense LMAO

I believe it. And it seems more of an Apple vs PC representation in the image.

How is apple vs PC different from apple vs windows?

What makes you believe more Democrats are apple users?

Oh man. Well, first of all, you're about to be accosted by a hundred GNU/Linux users.

Secondly Windows is an OS, while PC is generally a hardware spec. Plus the PC on the right shows HP, which is not Windows, but rather a PC manufacturer.

What makes you believe more Democrats are apple users?

The whole thing is a generalization. I am generalizing based on personal observations.

I'm not understanding the charts. Is Texas more PC or Mac?

[–] CaptDust 2 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

Everywhere is more PC than Mac, by a lot. But chart shows if they only had Mac users in Texas voting, it goes deep blue. PC voters only is more split and favors Trump.

Hmm, okay. Maybe I'm being dense, but how does that tell us where one platform or the other has more liberal or conservative users?

[–] CaptDust 2 points 4 months ago

You're not being dense I promise, it's a pretty useless data point. My understanding is not many people responding to the poll using a Mac chose Trump, thus it must be the liberal's choice platform.

Would you like a nice MINT?

That's what the company contributions look like, not what the user base is. That's like saying it's mostly conservatives who drive Teslas because Tesla contributes to Republicans.
