It is an American problem.

It's almost entirely due to peer pressure created by apple. They bully people who can't use ichat. My family does this to me, and I'm way too old for that shit.

The peer pressure isn't created by Apple. It is creation of their own mind. Their own lack of self confidence.

No. Apple literally refuses to make iMessage display Android messages correctly. It's not even peer pressure. Apple probably already has a solution, but fixing thier software isn't worth the possibility of losing customers.
