Objectively no reason for that apology.
They need to apologize for apologizing.
Whatever dipshits demanded they apologize need to apologize for making the internet a worse place.
They definitely should’ve put more thought into it before typing “internetism”, but still no reason for an apology.
i think saying internetism is a reason for apology
“We apologize for the apology. Those responsible for demanding it have been sacked.”
Probably management and not from anyone else.
Would smash
This rock against an oyster
Shuck it baby!
just use your shelltoozh!
Why would they apologize for that? Were people clutching their pearls?
Some people thought the aquarium was appropriating AAVE
How dare they express the joy that was in their hearts!
I don’t think “thicc” is AAVE. That is pretty much an Internet-ism as the original post says. “OH LAWD” though, yeah, is cringe.
Digital blackface smdh
What is aave?
African-American Vocabulary English. Some people think it’s racist for white people to use them because cultural appropriation, which is a term that never should’ve left the academic circles it originated from, as people are using it way too broadly, and as something evil and bad.
Lmao Jesus Christ
I’ve begun assuming any culture war rage bait bullshit is just Russian troll farms or their copycats. They poisoned the well on purpose, so I’ve decided to let them drink it instead. It isn’t always going to be accurate, but it’s great for my mental health.
But is the otter, in fact, a chonk?
But Abby is cute and also is thicc.
I laughed and accept that most humor offends someone. I’m sure the offended would get a laugh out of something that I wouldn’t like so I don’t care if they are offended now.
In their defence, Abby is kind of thicc.
Did DougDoug do this? Sounds like DougDoug did this.
It’s otter awareness week, so I guess it’s working.
somehow find it hard to believe they were really offended. it is just another form of satisfying the “being right on the internet” addiction.
what they don’t realize is there is always someone “holier than thou”. you can for instance easily take “comparing Black women to animals” and give it a completely pointless animal rights twist (its not the animal rights that is pointless it is the twist, saying in case someone tries to cancel me) and ask this person to apologise. it is an endless game.
That’s pretty cringe to be honest.
Cringe is getting offended by an aquarium having fun with their PR.
Cringe mention!
Cringe!
No u.
