It's always "whataboutisms" with this type. Never an actual defense, just a deflection to something else.

I'm EXACTLY the same. You don't need to atone. I own up to my mistakes. I admit I was wrong. People see it as character development, so don't be ashamed of your story. Own that shit! You have lived and grown! That's very good thing.

This is it. If you Google Andrew Carnegie, he's listed as a philanthropist who built libraries. If you Google the Battle of Homestead, you can see how people literally died to fight for labor rights against him. These people were never good people. We just forgot the bad.

The vibe here is so good though. I'm really glad to be here.

I keep laughing at bloopers. This is top tier!

I do think it gives them a bigger narrative to be a part of. I suspect that's a big draw too. It's just a really shit narrative.

I'll never understand the drive to make other people's lives more miserable. We're given only so many years in this planet. Why not enjoy your life and let others enjoy theirs. These people seemingly can't do either of those.
