I don't believe in forgiveness or redemption without repentance. Repentance isn't as easy as "I changed my mind" and going for the other team, it needs genuine effort to make things right and suffer yourself as atonement for the suffering you created. Sitting in his rich mansion sipping coffee and screaming about a different topic is nothing of the sort.
Admitting to being wrong is step one of that, and he barely even is willing to do that and adds a dozen caveats to protect his ego. Because his ego is more important than the people who are fucking still dying.
Nothing. He is a man whose entire career and fame depends on his beliefs, ideas, and words. He has shown those to not only be worthless, but easily manipulated and used as a weapon for his ego before anything else.
To simply say "I was wrong, I'm sorry I let my fear get the best of me" and then do nothing else would show a genuine remorse for his actions and that he recognizes his failing as a prelude to actual growth. Instead he picks up a new war to start to repeat the same actions.
His current controversy shows that has he done no reflection, as his ego and desire to be the smartest guy in the room is still 100% at the control of this crusade.
