There's a time to be goofy and a time to be serious. This isn't a goofy time. Your inability to tell the difference is something you should look into.

    The problem is that at LTT it's always goofy time. If they just sit down and start talking, yes that is much more professional but at the same time it really feels disingenuous, coming from someone who has stated on multiple occasions that he wants dbrand to sponsor the video eventually made about his own funeral. I do think they could have gone for less jokes, but it's hard to get the balance right, especially if the video in question is (somewhat ironically) rushed.

    So what would you like from them?

    At this point it's a mea culpa. Even with the expected goofy angle. That's at least 1000 times better than what basically any other multi-multi million dollar corporation would say or do.

    Or is your only concern having a target for outrage?

    I'm not saying they are forgiven, but it's more than basically anybody else. And should the pressure stop? Also no.
