So, classic corporate walk-back. Put something out that's horrible, get backlash, walk it back to what you originally wanted to do which is "less horrible", then make people feel good cause they feel like they won while you're still laughing to the bank.

Fuck unity, let them rot.

Idk if there is an official term for it. But yes, it's a very well known corporate and/or political tactic.
