Do you live up to that standard, or would someone be able to find some damning evidence of some dark side of you?
Is it possible that people are messy, not always consistent in their behaviour, that they have bad days? That they haven't thought everything through, that they get caught in the moment and regret it later?
Is there any grey area to you?
My degree is in neuroscience. People aren't consistent. The self is mutable. That doesn't mean we shouldn't hold each other to standards? We're intensely social creatures, the opinions of others has incredible transformative power (positive and negative) on our behavior.
Rogan has had opportunities to apologize for the clip or change his behavior. He has not.
Apologizing would help, for example.
Suggesting that gray areas exist would absolutely not imply that everything is gray.
Furthermore, my critique had several angles, each alluding to the possibility of a different interpretation.
How is my post binary in any way?
Not all dark pasts are created equal
