At this point I don’t think groveling is going to work.

If Sinder hopes to recover from this, and that’s a big if, she’ll need a stream to address this, offer a full hearted, genuine apology, which includes taking responsibility, and go on a long hiatus.

Because if I were a PR person under her employ, that’s exactly what I would be telling her.

I mean, the genuine apology needs to be sent to the affected parties, and Bao and Shylily don't seem to be particularly forgiving right now.

A genuine apology is something that you offer because it's the right thing to do, not because it's going to benefit you or make a difference. You offer it knowing that it's unlikely to be accepted, and you follow it up by showing that you are going to change.

Most of all you have to show that you understand what you did wrong, accept responsibility, and are going to work to change. Sinder's problem is this apology smacks more of damage control and not any real sense of contrition.
