I don't think any apologies are necessary from either side. In fact, too many of us are obsessed with apologies.

I would agree in some cases, but not this one.

His response was way beyond a reasonable angry retort at FR for a banning that was an over reaction to a post that did fall outside the guidelines for what is appropriate here.

Not apologizing for basically accusing us of being a bunch of bigoted, racist, sexist snobs based on no evidence, would show a lack of character and common civility on his part.

I'm not saying he had no cause to be angry, he certainly did. But then he spoke in anger, not just to us, but for the entire world to see, and made outrageously viscous comments that were completely uncalled for and lacked any supporting evidence.

Most people would apologize in such a case. And I believe one is appropriate here.

Go back and watch that video again - he did apologize for his previous rant about FR. There’s message bubbles all over that video saying all is good.

I think he should edit the video and pull the beginning out - if that’s possible on YouTube.

I haven’t followed this much and can’t see youtube stuff. Anyone who couldn’t see that would have no idea what race or sex oe age he was. And those who could see youtube, would see the talent that has given rise to his support. Because of that the use of the race card on his part is disappointing, demonstrating a lack of analytical thinking.
