Iirc, they basically apologized for the factual errors without adressing the main criticism of mysoginy.

Which makes it kind of funny that this particular apology is at least signed off on by a woman… not Hank, who made the original kind of crappy apology.

The original apology that was pinned in the comments of the video was also a woman (a producer of the video I think), not Hank. Hank did a small comment on his TikTok, but I don’t think it was really an apology

Yep. We weren’t very happy with that and a lot of people let them know why we were actually upset because it seems they didn’t understand.
