I'm confused why Kotaku mentioning next gen in the title when Rockstar only commented on current generation PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.

Is this type of comment helpful for you? Are people supposed to follow-up with some comment about PC players are sheep and will be buy the game for consoles and then buy it PC when it releases there?

This platform war nonsense is tiring.

GTA5 PC players usually play on modded servers that don't use shark cards. I think that's what they meant.

Yeah, I'm unconvinced that PC players don't purchase micro-transactions.

Yes, my post was hyperbole, I should have been more accurate.

You didn't address the topic though, are you just here to score points?

"Hyperbole" is just a euphemism for strawman. No one said PC players don't buy shark cards. You made their argument look ridiculous by misrepresenting what they said. That isn't a good faith argument to begin with.

I bet its because console players are far more likely to dump their life savings into Shark Cards 2.0 in massive fits of hysterical FOMO.

...isn't an example what I would consider a "good faith argument" to begin with, but I do apologize if my responses come off as blunt.
