I don't think the word DONATION is irrelevant at all.

Tim Sweeney is using the word "DONATION" deliberately to make Apple look like someone that steals even the "donations".

You know like someone stealing from the church lockbox.

I am not supporting Apple here at all, I am just pointing out the attempt to manipulate public opinion.



Taxing individual artists is far worse than stealing from the church lockbox imo.


Like people sometimes ask "if money is the root of all evil, why does the church want it so much?". :)
