The problem is not, people making mistakes. The problem is, people making mistakes and saying they weren't mistakes. Or they give non-apologies.

- wonderwonder 5y agoWhy do they have to apologize to society for making a mistake in a local setting? Social media has created this bizarre environment where a simple interaction between a couple people offends the entire world and then the entire world crushes the transgressor, ends their employment and demands an apology? That is insanity. Normal people should never be thrust into the position where they are forced to apologize to society for a normal mistake or face complete annihilation. Additionally, its not like social media waits for their target to apologize before wreaking havoc on their ability to feed their family. They just attack and then the apology is used as an additional attack vector because no matter what the apology is never enough.

- inglor_cz 5y agoLooking at the scandals of the last decade, apology usually does not help the target at all. It is just part of the expected sick show before being fired or punished anyway. One day, we will wake up in a world where apology has died out because it was never rewarded by forgiveness.
