Did you compare this against a reliable source before sharing? If so, could you share a source?
I’m not necessarily disputing these particular factual claims — since I’m on not an expert on this moment in history — but please, please don’t rely uncritically on AI for factual questions.
Edit: a typo
It is true that “apology” is an overloaded term that can mean many things, depending on context.
You’ve stripped away the context (and therefore bent the word’s meaning here). The substance of what MAGA wanted was an expression of remorse. They thrive on instilling fear and shame in others. They loath details and nuance.
Lexical gymnastics don’t change the simple fact that Kimmel (1) did not express shame for what he said and instead (2) reiterated useful details and nuance. Both of these things oppose the MAGA movement, and that’s a good thing.
In other words: there’s no point in continuing this conversation. Later 👋
