Is Iphone a status symbol in your country?
>2026 internet
sad
>>224875822not really. it's not even the most expensive phone you can buy since foldable phones exist
>>224875822It is here. It generally means you have a high income or one of the lucky ones to be approved of a loan. Applying for any loan in the Philippines is like being an indian man trying to get a white girlfriend.
when mom finds all the BBC's i saved on my iPhone
>>224875822i don't think so, but you need one to have sex
>>224875822not reallyit used to be but now most realise its just a phoneof course shallow materialistic people still think its a status symbol
>>224875822>>224875839>>224875870>>224875897>>224875925>>224875946indians arent real
>>224875822Wtf there’s not even an Apple Store in Mexico and I had to drive to San Antonio to buy one for cheaper
>>224876150bet they call this shit out in america. here people who think that you shouldn't hit children are the types that excuse the behaviour when it's done by pakistanis and indians but not other whites.
It's a thirdie cunt so yes>>224876155Firstie problem
>>224876398they even got him a cake holy shit
>>224876398This one is the besto.Others don't even got dolce gabbana sunglasses.
>>224876602why is it a big deal in india? it's expensive in turkey too but not like buying a sports car.
makes you think how do these jeets even get the moneyare they some nepo babies living off their parents' money? or some retarded poorfags who went into debt or sold their houses just to earn some izzat? I just can't believe anyone who actually earned the money themselves would put on such a spectacle
>>224876798im pretty sure wealth disparity is hardcore in indialike 90% live in favela tier dalit shit,9.5% live okayish enoguh and 0,5% are russian oligarch tier
>>224875822if youre brahmin you flaunt itonly dalits use android
>>224876697It's very expensive relative to the median income. To put this into perspective it costs 1.6-2.5+ lakh (don't worry what that means) to buy the new iphone in india, while the median yearly income of tier-3 (most Indians) college graduates is only about 3.5 to 6 lakhs. So non-graduates are even worse off. It is essentially like buying a ferrari for these low income neighborhoods. They take loans, borrow money or save to buy them to flex, for status.For premiere institutes like IITs, IIMs etc it's a different story i guess. But even they're feeling the heat. a lot of people started with 40 laks per annum or higher even, depending on the stream they choose.This >>224877056 basically, wealth disparity.But whenever I used to go to trips, trekking or camping with my friends we always took photos with iphone. We atleast trusted apple to take decent photos, if nothing else. So it's not like it's purely izzat farming
We could basically go through the list of every country with a non-negligible Indian population and the theme would be consistent: They were brought there by elites who needed a submissive, easily exploitable labor pool when local labor asked for better living conditions or wages.Why? Because Indians never did. They are a population that seems fully content with subjugation (even Marx noticed this).So it’s easy to see why they were such an ideal population for the intensive global expansion era of colonial empires. And it’s even easier to see why they are perfect subjects for late capitalism now.They are the culturally, psychologically, and physically ideal organism for the dominant system.There’s 1.4 billion of them. They are deeply socially stratified and so expect and even enjoy inequality. Their cuisine is cheap, meat-free slop. They live amongst trash and filth with no qualms. They don’t care about the environment. Their reaction to death and abuse is blank-eyed indifference. They are physically and spiritually malleable. They not only adopt and internalize the demands of the dominant system as personal ambition, they believe this servitude makes them better than everyone else who hasn’t.Absolutely IDEAL subjects.You, on the other hand, are not the ideal subject.You want to live in a high-trust society. You would shed tears if someone tried to cut down the apple tree you climbed as a child to build a data center. You want to see and experience beauty. You want your own space. You have an expectation that your living conditions will improve over time. You would not be content to live in a room with 10 other people, work 16 hours per day for pennies, and eat cheap slop.You are a liability. Just like the Burmese and Surinamese slaves were.And as we continue to crawl deeper into this late capitalist hellscape, you and your silly little needs will come into increasing conflict with those of the system.
izzat is most important
>>224875822you are just jealous you cant afford 3 iphone 18 pros

>>224877975My man commie Lithuania
>>224877727One thing I noticed is the number of button-up shirts. If there’s a spot the trash on the street view challenge, how about finding one guy wearing something other than a button-up shirt?
No it's normie shit. I have android s26 and never had a better phone. It could even see northern lights.

>>224875897dudes buying an iphone during an earthquake
>>224877398Patty used to be hot when she startedRoids really ruined her
>>224875822Among goy cattle yes
>>224875822Why does 4chan seethe about people buying iphones, but not about rich people buying luxury watches? At the very least, iphones have multiple uses, and they aren't that egregious in price when it comes to other modern smartphones (2x-3x max the price of current year models from other companies).Meanwhile luxury watches have the same functionality as regular watches, but they are 1000x the price. Pic related costs more than a 1kg gold bar.
>>224876099I bet it is not an exaggeration that having one there can get you pussy considering how golddigger filipinas are
>>224876315you gotta admit even compared to other thirdies, indians are just on a league of their own
>>224878922

>>224877848in what world?in most tropical shitholes, going out around in shorts is normalexcept if you are going to a place that explicitly bans revealing clothes like tank tops or shorts (hospitals, offices, certain gov institutions, etc)UNLESS you mean those faggy small tight shorts like that one dutch faggot like to wear
>>224878922For the same reason they prefer troonix: they are nerds
>>224879134>seething about linux from a post about watcheslmao, glad brownoids like you are too low IQ for linux

>>224876398WATCH OUT THERE'S A SNIPE-
>>224883114>japan>muggingnippon has fallen
>>224878922a billion people have iphonesprobably 40 in the entire world wear that watch one is made in suicide net factoriesone is made by hand in europeone loses half its value every yearone can only appreciate one is just a collection of very cheap microchipsone is a very precise mechanism filled with rubies and a crystaltell me how the latest iphone is a better investment than a nice watch
>>224883114those foldable phones look so ugly, i'd never use a retarded shit like that.
>>224884187>one loses half its value every year>one can only appreciateMonetary value, not actual value. The $90,000 watch isn't going to get better at telling the time every year. >one is just a collection of very cheap microchips>one is a very precise mechanism filled with rubies and a crystalYou can make that exact same $90,000 Patek watch, using synthetic rubies and synthetic diamonds, for less than the price it takes to manufacture an iphone.
>>224875822In high school, kids make fun of kids who don't have the latest flagship models, but that's about it.
>>224875822Wanna impress me? Get a crank radio with built in 500 lumen light and powerbank.

Every single one of these kids immediately connected their new phone to the internet and went to 4chan.org slash /int/ to began racebaiting
>>224878466this is the one thing i respect about saar. they may be poor and the most undesirable people on earth look wise, but they dress like pretty respectable adult. unlike the most people with just t-shirt and jeans.
