You're getting downvoted because anything that isn't full-throated condemnation is being a "corporate apologist", but is this really what we want to see corporations being held accountable for? That their chocolate shapes aren't shaped "right"? They're poisoning our planet and profiting off of slavery. This is the smallest of small things to be punishing them over and it's being treated like some crowning achievement. They should 100% be litigated into oblivion, but this ain't it. This is a joke and should be treated as such.

I feel like "mansplaining" has lost all meaning. It used to be about men going out of their way to correct someone that didn't need correcting, particularly if they were wrong themselves, and most often with women. Now people use it on men just...saying things to anyone.

I get that people are touchy on the subject, and I respect anyone's right to not want or need help. I think how Mr. Solomon handled it was correct - ask if they want your input and respect their answer. It'd just be nice if people didn't use cultural memes to dismiss others out of hand.

The soundtrack to Sayonara Wild Hearts is killer. Love that game.
