Palmer Luckey: ‘I am deeply sorry that my actions’ hurt Oculus

Palmer Luckey founded the modern VR movement and made millions of dollars selling his company to Facebook. Now, he’s using that cash to pay for a group of self-proclaimed “shitposters” who want to influence the upcoming U.S. presidential election with anti-Hillary Clinton internet memes.

A report from The Daily Beast made Luckey’s contributions to the Nimble America group a matter of public record, and now the Oculus founder is explaining his actions. Nimble America, cofounded by right-wing reactionary blogger Milo Yiannopoulos, has already posted anti-Clinton billboards in Pittsburgh. Luckey’s support of those actions has drawn criticism from gamers and developers, and several studios have claimed they will no longer support Oculus VR’s products as a result.
