I don't get this.  I like my iPhone.  I have a long background in

should not do so, and why should I care?

I like my iPhone too.  There are some things it does and certain
apps which I've grown accustomed to that I can't do without.  But I
think what Arlen has been pointing out to the iPhone group is that
Apple has severely limited iOS and the iPhone compared to Android
and the other phone manufacturers.  This type of mentality is not
tolerated and immediately assailed by those heavily invested in the
Apple ecosystem.  There can't be a real discussion without personal
insults and talking past each other.  If anyone doesn't worship
Apple they are immediately labeled a troll or heretic.  It's much
like the political discourse these days.

 
Exactly so.  I'm neither a troll nor a heretic, but there is no need
for people to insult those who either like or don't like iPhones. 
And Arlen (if he exists) is just as bad in that respect.

He goes out of his way to insult people merely for civilly disagreeing
with him.

Hell, they don't even have to disagree with him. He's regularly here
calling anyone who uses Apple products dumb, low-IQ, etc. And
invariably when people push back, badgolferman swoops in claiming those
same people are intolerant and attacking poor, little Arlen. They play
this little game repeatedly.
