I agree with your viewpoint 100%.   I was sent some information about the
Apple IIGS, and so I can see why its users are angry at Apple for
discontinuing it.   But what will you gain by bashing Apple or the
Macintosh?  All you can do is put Mac owners in the same boat as Apple II
owners by bringing Apple down.  Do you think anything will make Apple
produce the Apple II again?
