@protik.bsky.social I'm trying to find an old sk/tweet of yours here, to quote it, but I can't. It went like "You don't have to think someone is irredeemable to notice that they haven't redeemed themselves". Do you have the tweet, or can i quote what I have, or do you wanna amend what I wrote there?
