I hate to be a stickler about this shit, I really do, but it’s important. This apology is better than nothing, but it falls short in an important area. By saying “Sorry to those offended,” it winks to those who liked the “joke” that the problem isn’t actually with what they said.https://twitter.com/CyberpunkGame/status/1031930291772899329 …

At the end of the day, these conversations have nothing to do with being “offended.” They have to do with normalizing and reinforcing oppressive forces like misogyny, racism, and transphobia that do material harm in people’s lives.

IOW a pseudo-apology like this actually fuels the narrative of the self-characterized “anti-SJW” crowd that the freedom devs should have to pursue their unfettered artistic vision of making wildly transphobic, misogynistic games is being robbed by the all-powerful SJW elite.
