To be fair. His farming ventures have moved his opinion on climate in a positive direction. People can change their mind and that is a good thing. I would even go as far as calling it a very good sign that even a person as stubborn as the great ape Clarkson can change their opinion on this matter is absolutely fantastic. Good on Clarkson! And fuck the other guy for shoving up the past in his face when he is trying to be better.
Exactly. There was a time when I didn't know how to multiply 6 by 5.
But I learned, as did I'm sure all of you.
Ignorance can be cured.
Punishing people for the ignorance of their past when their present self is trying to do better is wrong.
Maybe be a little more charitable towards your fellow man.
But Clarkson wasnt just ignorant, he was actively spreading ignorance.
He was out there telling all the kids that 6 x 5 = 40.
Now it looks like he might have realized that 6 x 5 is actually 30. If he wanted to be an adult and try to do better, he would be posting about how he was wrong, posting apologies, and positively affirming that 6 x 5 = 30. I dont see him doing any of these things.
Nobody improves exactly the same way.
Improvement is still good
