The retraction is a good first step. But I require more from you.

I require that you also affirm that you will defend "LP and his lackeys" as you call them in the future if you see anyone making a similar unsubstantiated claim of abuse and actively deflate the meme that "LP and his lackeys" are extraordinarily abusive. If you can't affirm to do that in the future and if you choose to stand silently by while the meme continues to spread you are still complicit in helping spread it with your mistake here. It's like lighting a fire and saying you're sorry, admitting you set the fire but still standing there watching it burn a house down. Time for you to pick up a bucket of water and do help put the fire out.

Oh and stop calling other developers lackeys. That'd be pretty good too.
