Some apologies are heartfelt and some are nonsense, and sometimes it's hard to tell which are which. Since Taibbi hasn't apologized, not even to the person who he mistreated so egregiously, Politico really shouldn't be asking him to opine on "cancel culture" as if his history is irrelevant.

My thing is this, back in the early me too days I’d read FB friends takedowns of different people for doing different things. And some of them were so extreme that I could only be glad I was no longer dating. You say why does your opinion matter, but the louder voices don’t ask that question. If something bugs them, there is not the next step of “is my opinion mainstream enough to insist on it.”
