Do you think that state of things is fair and preferable? If so, why?

I think the bullshit is part when people dig up old tweets to stop someone from getting a job/chance in the present. That's just people being douchebag parasites. But I think if you are dumb enough to still be edgy these days for no reason knowing it fucks up people's money is on you.

Let's use DaBaby as an example. I think he deserved to lose his shows because of his dumbass move, but I don't think he should be thrown away and not given a chance to grow. Just keep an eye on him if you actually care. But you won't, bevause you don't actually care about him as a person. You don't care that his dad died 2 years ago and his brother killed himself late last year. You don't care that that might be stewing in a person to make them do some dumb shit and not think straight 24/7. All you see is that a guy said something that can be perceived as hateful and you don't like it. You just see a person you want to take away from over it because you're mildly irritated. He's not a living breathing person with faults and tragedy that dealed eith struggle throughout his entire life to you. You want the sensation of seeing someone do something negative, so you can say "Fuck that guy" and watch him fall. And you personally don't have to forgive him. But to think you should have control over others perception on someone they know on a deeper level is insane.

Anyway, obviously "you" is a placeholder and I don't actually mean you. You don't have to be forgiving. And I don't have to support slander against the gay community just because I am more forgiving. I can forgive and simultaneously hold him accountable for the dumb shit he does without completely throwing him away. More so, I can use the dumb shit he did to segue into conversations with people about why it was wrong.
