I’m so tired of the rote cynicism. If he doesn’t apologize, it proves a sociopath billionaire who cares for nobody. If he apologizes, it proves he’s a sociopath billionaire who cares for nobody. I’m reminded of Life of Brian.

We can’t know what he really thinks, but as apologies go, this is a good one. And it’s not healthy to see every piece of evidences as further proof of one’s own unshakable beliefs.

It's entirely logically consistent: these are just words, any combination of them doesn't change that.

When people say that the implication is they expect to see some action beyond issuing a statement.

It's not a good apology. It's boilerplate to save the stock price. It's not from the heart; it's vague by design. It's meant to get as many shareholders as possible to say: "ok." That's not genuine.
