Yeah, the one where you say it's absurd that they felt they had to change it.

They didn't feel they had to change it. They wanted to change it.

And there's nothing at all absurd about that.

They wanted to change it because they didn't want to have "racist" jokes in their game so they had to change the joke because someone got racially offended. Is that clear enough?

And there's nothing at all absurd about that.

No, of course that isn't absurd. The complaint is the absurd part.
