What I think -
1. Freely advertising for a company that doesn't pay you.
2. If you say "(insert company name) fanboys are the worst," it is probably because you are a fanboy as well of a different company.
3. A compliment toward a non-preferred company is taken as a threat toward your company.
4. Judging a game based on the console it is on and not the game itself.
5. Following your preferred company's decisions whether you would originally agree or not. The Rush Limbaugh "Ditto" syndrome, as I call it.
If you study marketing, they are "loyalists with no competitor substitute." They advertise your company without having to pay for them.
"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY." --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials
Conservatives: Pushing for a small enough government to be a guest in your living room, or even better - your uterus.
