My post was supposed to be tongue-in-cheek because I think the GP post is equally absurd. In what way is a current CEO supposed to alter their business practice to make amends for the "abuses of China's past" (presumably including Tiananmen)?

> make amends for the "abuses of China's past"

They said "not only turn a deaf ear to", you turn it into "make amends for". The absurdity in your reading is there because you put it there.

Yes I put it there. I don't understand how they are turning a deaf ear and what the implied sane alternative is?
