> are not "taking responsibility" to the slightest degree

They’re not atoning to the internet’s satisfaction. But they are taking responsibility by saying as much.

The infantilism charge is accurate. Taking responsibility doesn’t require symbolic atonement like standing in a corner. Recognition is sufficient. If they deleted that line, would anyone be satisfied?




What does responsibility mean without consequences? The consequences here are all for people who bear none of the responsibility.
