So Barry is off-limits but Steve Jobs wasn't?

[CritAnime]

Stated simply, Jobs was a knob who cherry picked technology from other companies and took credit for a lot of creative work done by other firms.

And Barry didn't? The vic slim, vic mini/amiga mini, amiga mio, pheonix/vic pro were all rebadged machines that he cherry picked and rebranded for himself. The c64x was the only product that he could have claimed as his own but that was just modeled after the original with some minor detail changes.

I am not denying that Jobs did stuff like that we know he did but Barry also did the same. Yet for some reason it's now like we can't mention that without been called trolls or in some way upsetting his new found status.
 
I never wished harm on him, thats just rediculous if people did think that judging by some of the stuff I have seen said on Moo. Cancer is a horrible thing and destroys families and should be beaten and wiped off the face of the planet. Yet I don't get this saintly image that people now have for him. Maybe I am missing something.

I somehow got the impression that by paying my respects, regardless of my views on the products he sold, made me some sort of social nasty. I honestly don't get internet politics at times.
