Showerthought: I stopped checking who's canceled for old tweets and started checking who actually apologized to the person they hurt
Six months ago I got into a fight with my cousin over a band we both liked, because the singer had said some ugly stuff in 2011. I was ready to drop them forever and he said to just wait and watch what the guy did next. So now I have a dumb rule: I look for one direct apology to a named person, not a notes app post to the internet, and I check if their behavior changed over 6 months. That singer played a free show in Fresno for the group he insulted and donated the door money, so I bought a ticket. Where do you all draw the line between a real apology and a good PR team?
