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.
For me, most people in my area have to work labor jobs to get by. That alone will fuck you up by 30.
