    You put a lot of effort in to writing that

    It’s 3 short sentences, is that a lot for you?

    that energy would be better spent elsewhere.

    Yes you’re right, arguing with people who defend racists and is a waste of my time.

    Have a nice day.

There is nothing more important to me than your respect, and I apologize to those who were genuinely hurt or offended by the makeup I wore or the words I spoke.”

      Also, I asked my girlfriend - the apology is enough for her. She also thought the joke was shitty.

      When people talk about not letting perfect be the enemy of good, they’re talking about you. Your behavior in this thread is a part of the problem.

      Dude changes his mind and uses his platform to spread messages of defiance in the face of facism.
