Damn, that's an excellent apology. It's obviously worth nothing if the actions don't reflect a genuine desire to change, but it's worth everything if they do. I'm sick and tired of alienating those who change for the better. I want people to feel like progressives are the good and welcoming people who just want everyone to be equal and the best they can be.

Yeah, I don't have any horse in this race, any more than the average person should, and I haven't put any effort into seeing who's made the choice to have kids with Elon, so this is everything I know about her, but that certainly sounds like a well thought out, heartfelt apology, with no equivocation. People need to be given room to grow if the world is going to get any better, even in a shitty time like this.

> I’m sick and tired of alienating those who change for the better. I want people to feel like progressives are the good and welcoming people who just want everyone to be equal and the best they can be. This is why I am not a big fan of Leopard’s Eating My Face posts.* Most of the time it’s regular people realizing their mistake. When people realize their mistakes, these are the cracks for progressives to spread a progressive ideals. *The only time I enjoy Leopards Eating My Face posts are when the subject had a power and chose not do anything.
