MODERATORS
Yeah, this is a prime example of something that is true but used to justify shitty behavior or beliefs.
The modern day equivalent would be if JK Rowling moderated her shitty beliefs and Potter stans decided that made her books unproblematic
The thing is, people have to actually try and undo some of the damage they did before they can be counted as reformed
Simply being less vociferously racist is the absolute minimum of a start, but it doesn't fix anything
For some though, that's the equivalent of Darth Vader being redeemed by saving Luke and killing the Emperor
