@markhburton@mstdn.socialF'wits. He was merely saying there are concerns. Which I share.
'Labour minister Reed said: "Polanski's apology clearly means nothing given he continues to denigrate the actions of our brave police officers."
'Liberal Democrat home affairs spokesman Max Wilkinson, also responding after the show, said: "Polanski's comments today prove that he wasn't apologising at all for the sentiment he shared on social media."'
Polanski says …
@david@boles.xyzStop Applauding the Forced Apology
There is no such thing as a sincere statement made with a boot on the neck, and we have built a culture that pretends otherwise.Watch what happens now when someone steps out of line. A demand goes up for a statement. The statement arrives, in the approved shape, full of the approved words, and a crowd gathers to judge whether the sorrow inside it looks real enough to accept.
@hex@kolektiva.socialA severed head is not half as useful as an apology.

Apparently he also has some slave ancestry?…
@cdarwin@c.imThe United Nations General Assembly has voted to recognise the enslavement of Africans during the transatlantic slave trade as
"the gravest crime against humanity",
a move advocates hope will pave the way for healing and justice.
The resolution - proposed by Ghana - called for this designation, while also urging UN member states to consider apologising for the slave trade and contributing to a reparations fund.
It does not mention a specific amount of money…

I actually find this pathetic, sheepish non-apology immensely encouraging: when people attempt to slink out of blame, it means they think they might actually experience some kind of negative consequences.
@ruth_mottram@fediscience.org"DB will let you down. It will also, more often than the internet would have you believe, deliver you eight hours of clean uninterrupted thinking time at 250 km/h across a country, drop you within walking distance of your next meeting, and occasionally reroute you down the left bank of the Rhine at golden hour as an apology. The trick is to plan for the first and enjoy the second.'

@scottmiller42@mstdn.socialTo those apologizing for being tricked into supporting #Fetterman in the 2022 Senator primary:
No apology necessary. Per the saying, “fool me once, shame on you.” There was no indication he’d go MAGA back in 2022. The shame is on Fetterman for misrepresenting himself.
The second part, “fool me twice, shame on me” applies when you had ample warning. Example: 3x Turnip voters upset thei…

@cdarwin@c.imLast week, the New York Times reported that the Justice Department was finalizing a deal to settle Donald Trump’s shakedown suits against the executive branch he heads.
Trump would magnanimously agree to walk away from his $10 billion lawsuit against the IRS as well as two civil claims seeking $230 million for the “raid” on Mar-a-Lago and the subsequent prosecution in the stolen documents case.
All he wants is a public apology from the IRS over the disclosure of his tax returns…
