I don't really understand the motivation of deranged anti-sex Progressives... but I don't believe God is a part of it.
Anti-sex is a conservative thing, mostly stemming from the Christian fundamentalism the same as anti-gay, anti-anything-not-like-me which is the call sign of the Christian conservative movement. I'm not sure how anyone could get that so wrong.
Tim Cook as a human should get the same amount of media attention that the rest of humanity gets,
Why? Success comes with benefits, one of which more people are interested in what you have to say. Why would anyone want to hear from someone who has achieved nothing in their life?
Hopefully you'll come to realise this, as carrying that much bitterness around with you is not good for your health.
Now this raises another question. How did you equate me asking a question with me being bitter? Maybe stop trying to figure what you think I'm trying to say and just focus on what I'm actually saying. As you said, it's better for your health...
Everyone does not need to learn to code any more than everyone needs to learn calculus or everyone needs to learn music.
I also think that everyone should learn basic maths and music. That's the cool thing about the internet, you get to see different points of view other than your own.
Except for ones shown on TV, practically all documentaries are pay to watch..
So except for the ones most people watch...
Some of them make it to Netflix, eventually (years later), but there are a ton of independent documentaries out there
I think you're exaggerating a bit. Between FTA TV, Netflix which most people already have so it's effectively free, and YouTube, most docos watched are not being specifically paid for by the watcher. Film festivals and docos at theatres make up a very very small percentage of views.
Everyone does not need to learn to farm, be a police officer, be a politician, beautician, actor, painter, composer, or any other particular skill.
Learning to code, even if just an elementary level actually teaches you how to think, unlike the arbitrary skills you tried to unsuccessfully connect it with above.
Thinking not only improves your life, it also improves everyone else's by not impacting the rest of us with your stupid decision making.
Despite my criticisms of Tim Cook using Apple as his personal political platform
How so? Tim Cook is a human with opinions political or not, should being a CEO prevent you from broadcasting such opinions? That seems like an odd position to be take.

My wife is addicted to the grade-C documentaries one can watch on Netflix or Youtube.
One can also watch grade-A docos on Youtube and Netflix so maybe it says more about your wife than the content provider.
Those tend to be old documentaries.
Crap.

Fuck Exchange. If your company picked Exchange, chances are they've made a *lot* of wrong decisions. Especially like hiring an incompetent IT staff.
Incompetent staff are the ones that bitterly dwell on things that don't really matter in the grand scheme of things. Thanks for the demonstration.

An Inconvenient Truth. The name strikes me as strangely apposite, considering the 'tone' of your questions.
Did you pay to see it? I didn't.
This is the first time I have heard of the documentary
So Slashdot is now the TV guide?
and the first time I have heard of Musk's offer to pay for anyone who wanted to to watch it, hence it's news.
Is that news because of Elon Musk, or do all 'person sponsors film' stories deserve a place on Slashdot?
Any other questions?
Yes, do you have posters of Elon Musk on your bedroom wall?
If you're going there then this isn't free either as I need to buy a device, an internet connection and pay for electricity in order to watch it.
Can anyone ever tell me of a documentary you had to pay to see? How is this news?
