It's a powerful tool that will resonate with a lot of people.
I thought and said some pretty awful bigoted shit when I was in my teens. Things I feel guilty about and disagree with now. Should that be held against me now? Probably. But I'd hope that I'd have a chance to apologise, accept that my views were abhorrent 20+ years ago and move on with my life.
I was recently reflecting on similar poor behaviour from myself in years gone by. And I feel the same, yes I can be called out for those statements and thoughts but these days I’d be willing to admit my wrongs and make atonement.
Hopefully we can accept our errors, and then rectify them.
