The translation is, “It wasn’t us don’t get angry, but also it kind of was one of us and also we are sticking by the decision so it may as well have been us.” I don’t really see that it matters if the story is true - in the best possible case they’re just saying that they don’t have a way of setting policies and having those policies be followed.

If we’ve learned anything from centralised platforms it’s that size doesn’t protect platforms from the consequences of making bad decisions.
