Hahaha I'm curious about the reasoning behind the HP and mac being red/blue

[–] blarghly@lemmy.world 12 points 4 days ago (1 children)

HP, I think, just represents using a generic PC. The stereotype is that liberals use Macs

[–] cyberpunk007@lemmy.ca 1 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Hm. I would have thought libs would be all in Linux, which is mainly PC focused.

If you think that, you live in a bubble. Go to an anti-Trump protest and ask what desktop operating system they use. Your answers will be "Windows is gross, ew, I use a Mac", "Whatever my job gives me, I haven't used a personal laptop in years", and "What's an operating system?"

Haha that's fair.

The creative industry has a history of using Mac

[–] kboos1@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

Probably because MAC was niche for a long time hipster for a long time. HP/Compaq and now Dell has almost always been synonymous with corporate office workers

I feel like this is because Japanese tourists hit up Hawaii and the west cost a lot. Affluent areas and the west coast tech scene are littered with Macs. And those areas are also pretty blue.
