    I get that this is just a meme, but comparing YouTube drama to the reckless behavior of a multi-billion dollar oil conglomerate causing incalculable amounts of ecological damage

      Sexual harassment allegations are not “drama”. And anyways, the comparison is in the way they apologize and not the damage they have done.

        Dafuq what did I miss??? I thought the criticism was about data inaccuracy and overworking (which they addressed in the apology video (whatever that means))

      It’s actually being compared to a South Park episode that parodies damage control.

      I think it’s only comparing the same impression of a fake apology, only to calm down the crowd.

      True, there are probably better companies with a toxic work environment, uncompetent managment and rushed products but I can’t think of one rn, well except VW but that’s over the top too.
