May I ask the iKooks why they _hate_ basic smartphone functionality?

In a thread today, one of the iKooks claimed that nobody uses FM radio,
citing his own "personal poll" as the proof of that fact (to him).

Yet, the fact when the fact remains a fact that most phones come with the
FM radio just like most phones come with huge batteries nowadays.

The persistent observation is iKooks _hate_ a lot of facts about phones.
It's not just FM radio functionality that iKooks hate that it exists.

For example, iKooks _hate_ the fact most new phones have huge batteries.
And the iKooks _hate_ the fact most phones come with chargers in the box.

Why do iKooks _hate_ those facts?
Ask them why.

Likewise, iKooks _hate_ the fact most phones have the 3.5mm jack.
And iKooks _hate_ the fact most phones have sdcard slots too.

The iKooks _hate_ the fact most phones can change their homescreen app.
The iKooks _hate_ the fact most apps re-install on _any_ phone.

The list goes on and on and on about functionality iKooks hate existing.

Why?
Let me ask them why.

Why is it that the iKooks hate so much of what is basic functionality?

The standard answer is “not needed”.

Before you ask "why"...

Only KOOKS expect FM radio on their smartphones.

Having a college education in and of itself sets me apart from the iKooks.

whatever you supposedly had was wasted.

I know you nospam, perhaps far better than you know yourself.

What's interesting is decades ago I had heard about the flame wars between
the Apple (usually Mac) aficionados and the Windows/Linux but I wasn't part
of them until I got these iPads to test out and asked this ng for help.

Others were on this ng who were helpful such as Michele Steiner (who
started it, I think) and David Empson, but people like you were also here.

What at first confused me is how wrong people like you always were, where I couldn't figure out in any given post if you were just stupid or if you
were lying since you couldn't possibly _believe_ a word you said.

Then, when you and Jolly Roger & Lewis sent numerous people on sadistic wild-goose chases simply because you hated to admit iOS couldn't do
something, that's when I realized you are a truly disgusting human being.

All you iKooks are despicable worthless pieces of shit, personality wise.
a. You all _hate_ that Apple products are never what Apple said they were
b. So you brazenly _fabricate_ imaginary functionality that doesn't exist
c. Simply because you can't admit to _yourself_ that iOS is crippled.

The fact that iOS is crippled isn't what makes you all pieces of shit.
It's the fact you will brazenly lie about it because you hate that fact.

You don't give a shit that you sent innocent people on wild goose chase.
That's the clearest indicator of all that you iKooks are pieces of shit.

There's not a single sincere purposefully helpful "nice" bone in your body.
