Out of curiosity, what would accountability look like to you, in this case. Since she’s admitted guilt she’s likely to be held at least partially responsible for the crimes of others if it’s found her racist claim played a part in the crimes motivation. I assume she’s likely to lose her job as well, but we’ll have to wait and see i suppose.
I agree with your analysis of her apology. I don’t think I’ve ever considered what makes an apology sound genuine. I’ve always thought of it as a gut instinct. Thank you!
Do you think that the publicity from this statement, would make a second, more genuine attempt at an apology sound like attention seeking? I wonder what kind actions she could actually take to mitigate some of the damage she’s caused. That’s a rhetorical question, I think.
