Normally, when a person messes up and wrongs someone else, he has a responsibility to make it right, apologize to the affected party, and ask for forgiveness. Unless that affected party is a censorious mob feigning offense to hurt you — then you don’t owe them a damn thing.

Joe Rogan ought to keep that in mind. He has apologized twice now, first to those “offended” by podcast episodes that challenged the mainstream COVID-19 narrative and again after past episodes resurfaced in which he or his guests allegedly used inappropriate and racist language.
