Lost_All_Senses 08/01/21 5:29:51 PM #8:	I honestly don't see why acknowledging personal growth should get backlash. No one cares when I do it, cause I'm not seen by every person and it wouldn't be fun or a power trip to take me down, since no one cares. I think it's an important part of the process for those who were once ignorant to show others that it's ok as long as you are willing to actually try to change. You don't have to be stuck as that terrible person your elders mislead you to be. And giving this backlash just shows that you are better off staying that person in the shadows rather than changing who you are in the light and trying to be a positive example.

mooreandrew58 08/02/21 2:23:12 AM #44:	TheGoldenEel posted... how fucking insulated from society is this dude This is probably it right here. Gay slurs where even commonplace in my generation growing up. But when you are rich and don't have to socialize with regular people you probably are more prone to not noticing some shifts in cultural norms. His daughter is perhaps one of the only young people he interacts outside other rich/celebs. I dont know that but I'm speculating.

If he's no longer using a slur, that's a hell of a lot better than the usual double down people use. There's at least a few people on CE who have complained about not being able to use the N word because "everyone is too sensitive" I'd bet. >_> Don't throw stones when someone is trying to do better. --- Black Lives Matter. ~DYL~ (On mobile) 12-18-19 and 01-13-21: Times Donald Trump has officially been impeached. <cite>Umbreon posted [p:956691786] in Matt Damon...

So if someone isnt on Twitter or message boards like this, they could easily not be aware how quickly things change. And quite frankly with how ridiculous its turned. Theyre probably better off these days. Is Matt Damon a bad person? No. I guarantee we all did this. Yall acting like this is a thing are looking at this with the eyes of person who lives on the internet. Not everyone does. Thats not a bad thing and that doesnt make someone a bad person. Internet loves a good dogpile tho. Again. Hes better off not engaging in the cesspool. --- Like 90% of CE topics are the same way lol.
