      This is the apple_enthusiast community. Enthusiasts have Lego sets for all sorts of things for stuff the like. Why should liking a tech thing be any different?

      And this is different from wearing merch from your favorite sports team or fashion designer how?

      At least it’s on a shelf and not parading around in public as an unpaid walking billboard for someone.

        Unless the person has said they think those things are cool or acceptable, why would you assume they were inconsistent about thinking brand idoltry was dumb?
