They honestly make me more upset than the “die hards.”
Dave smith (Rogan buddy) apologizing and claiming he thought Trump was anti-war?? You believed a CERTIFIABLE liar???
TikTok mom influencers coming out and saying they regret it only after their fathers are deported and then asking for go fund donations for lawyers?? HE CAMPAIGNED ON MASS DEPORTATION.
They make me sick and I have little to no empathy.
I know that in order for our country to move forward there has to be some level of trying to gather these people to progressive voting in the future but my gosh- I may not be best suited for that effort. How in the heck can anyone talk to these people with a straight face??
Their admissions only make me want to scream in their face that they’re utter morons and embarrassments.
(Yes this is a rant post. End rant)

Feels to me like the types OP is referring to are realizing that lots of other people think they're shitty, and are unconsciously trying to distance themselves from that, without actually acknowledging that they were (are?) wrong.
It's the tiniest of steps in the right direction, but it's primarily still self-serving. "I still hate brown people, but I don't want you to hate me."
