There are times when people of the internet rally up an demand an influencer with a large following to hold themselves accountable to their past actions, it happened again this past month. So In this video, I decided to review the apology videos of KZbinrs called out for racial problems. from Shane Dawson to Jeffree Star to Tana Mongeau. I do not admit if I approve or forgive any KZbinr discussed, I just simply make a reaction and review their approach.

Racist and homophobic jokes are still racist and homophobic so saying you were just joking doesn't count

[@rosalynthornn]

Agree 1000%, I hate people that go "oh people are too sensitive now" and "now we cannot say one thing without getting attacked" as if racism and homophobic things are the only "jokes" you can use

[@ToeSniffer691]

I agree with you to an extent, but I believe context matters and if their intention was never to be racist then I won’t take it as so.

[@kodycore]

This is how people pass off their racist intentions nowadays on the internet. They say it's a joke and tell people to "stop getting so triggered", thinking it wasn't obvious. Everyone likes to act like they are insensitive, robotic cucks, but would cry and feel insecure if someone insults them online and would spend hours replying to comments thinking they are winning an arguement. I always see that shit in the reply sections, people eplying back months/years later still arguing about the same shit.

[@evanhansen724]

My dad used to make gay jokes, only because, well, that was all he knew. He didn’t have bad intentions, that’s all he knew. Back in his day, gay was like, only an insult. He stopped when I came out as pan/bisexual. He was curious, and respectful. He stopped making gay jokes. I feel like we need more people like him.

being in a “dark place” is very similar to being drunk in the way that it changes your decision making skills, not your morals. when you get into a “dark place” it won’t make you racist, but if you’re already racist it might be easier for you too slip up and show your true colours

[@alexandrahenderson4368]

I wish I could throw this comment at people who don't know this

[@sammygecko_]

People react differently in dark places. I’m not defending anyone and their actions, but I don’t know if what you’re saying really works. Racism is such a deeply rooted and complicated system that understanding people that have done/do racist things are just as complicated. Even so, they should all be held accountable. And while saying that you were in a “dark place” isn’t always a valid excuse and doesn’t imply that all people in dark places do racist things, it still gives some context... Probably could lead into the whole Nurture vs Nature dilemma.

“Acknowledge, apologize, understand, and help other people understand” and to this i say YES!! When i was at work, we were talking about what we’re gonna do for Halloween and whatnot. I asked one of my coworkers what she was doing since she hasn’t said anything and she said “i don’t celebrate Halloween” and all of us were like “wtfff it’s such a fun time” we explained how you don’t have to make it about anything but a day to just go out and have fun because she was saying it was about satan. We were telling her she was missing out on so much fun and that it doesn’t have to be about satan and whatever … and then i realized that we were lowkey ganging up on her. So i stopped everyone and said “look, she believes it’s about satan and we don’t. We can’t force her to believe in something she doesn’t, it’s pretty messed up” i apologized to her because we are sitting her telling her that her beliefs are wrong because we believe in something else. I still feel bad about it, just because it was about something so small like a “holiday” doesn’t mean it’s not wrong. Some of the people in that conversation still think I’m wrong but again .. i can’t make them see something they don’t want to. But the other understood what i was saying and also apologized to her ..

[@coldcrumble6977]

if an apology video is longer than 7 minutes, they are most likely trying to excuse their actions. a good apology states what they've done, why it's bad, and apologises and asks for forgiveness, whilst not expecting it. anything longer and they start trying to excuse it and beg for forgiveness

Latino here: Some people in the US are more concerned about white people using mariachi sombreros, eating burritos or imitating Sofía Vergara's accent, than asking us real issues we have down here. Than asking us how we deal with Speedy Gonzalez (a huge latino stereotype) or the movie Coco. How we deal with "the wall", our many indigenous communities and their own issues, and so much more. And some of us speak decent english, we could actually have a decent conversation if some of the people in the US handle the microphone over to us, instead of they talking why they're not racist and having a friend named García on a collab video or whatever crap they do to treat "latino culture" as something exotic and interesting.

I'm sure a lot of it comes out as homophobia, ableism and misogyny too. I'm saying that because I have the feeling that it comes out of the desire of not being at the bottom of the "food chain" so to speak. So they go after people they know they can get away with and that they know they can get others rallied against. Of course, that doesn't excuse them as it's a horribly toxic coping mechanism and there is never a valid excuse for causing harm to other human beings.

[@jessicavalarie6277]

@@morigaena333 Ableism is when a person(s) or thing(s) does or says something that is discriminatory towards a disabled person (whether they be physically disabled or mentally disabled) just because they have a disability, it's when you treat someone as inferior, inhuman, or as wrong just because they are not able-bodied/able-minded, or treating a disability like it automatically makes someone such. Some examples are: mocking someone in a wheelchair or with limited movement, calling someone autistic just for being stupid or toxic, or otherwise demeaning or harming someone due to their disability, or using a disability as an insult. It's called ableism because it's discrimination on just an ability basis, like how racism is discrimination on just a racial basis, or sexism is discrimination on a gender basis, all of which are very wrong and need to stop.

"I didn't pay attention to what I said and would apologize for saying it as it was an accident and would never say it again" (if they said it but they broke the promise then it's a bad apology) 2. "I didn't realize that word I said was a slur as I didn't educate myself on it and would educate myself on it and would never say it again" 3. "I would apologize for saying the racist word as I myself, would apologize for being stupid and didn't educate myself and everyone makes dumb mistakes but we can all learn our mistakes even the worst ones, but I would deeply apologize for saying it and would educate myself on it and will never say it" (Once again if the person who says it but breaks the promise, then it's a bad apology) 4. "If you still don't accept this apology for the racist word I said then it's fine you don't need to forgive me but if you do forgive me, I'm very sorry for the word I said as I didn't mean to offend and I would be careful and educate myself on it from now, have a good day guys and don't do stupid mistakes like I did"
