This is it. If you Google Andrew Carnegie, he’s listed as a philanthropist who built libraries. If you Google the Battle of Homestead, you can see how people literally died to fight for labor rights against him. These people were never good people. We just forgot the bad.
I do think it gives them a bigger narrative to be a part of. I suspect that’s a big draw too. It’s just a really shit narrative.
Oh wow. I forgot all about Voat. Let’s not do that again please.
I’ll never understand the drive to make other people’s lives more miserable. We’re given only so many years in this planet. Why not enjoy your life and let others enjoy theirs. These people seemingly can’t do either of those.
I’m EXACTLY the same. You don’t need to atone. I own up to my mistakes. I admit I was wrong. People see it as character development, so don’t be ashamed of your story. Own that shit! You have lived and grown! That’s very good thing.
