Do morons on the internet say disgusting things? Is water wet? But this "I'm just a poor Youtuber doing my best" routine while also running a company worth 100 million dollars doesn't fly.
This time he says "well yes our monoblock review was obviously wrong", but when it was first pointed out to him he did everything he could to deny any wrongdoing. If it was so obvious then why try to weasel out of it? A few days ago he was still saying "No one could rationally disagree with the choices we made" And that's forgetting their countless other reviews based on faulty, rushed data.
And even now that he's admitting it was "obviously wrong" he STILL doesn't really take accountability he STILL tries to make it sound like a single, honest mistake anyone could have made. But his own team told him at the time and his response was "well yes we messed it up but do you really expect us to spend another 500 dollars to redo a review?" (That's literally what he said, you can find it on Youtube)
It just feels like corporate damage control at best and gaslighting the audience at worst.
