Introspection is key. Are you actually nice or do you just think you are?
Would an average person describe you as nice? I’m not saying you should care what others think, I’m saying you can use what others say as a starting point, especially if it’s someone whose opinion you respect.
I don’t care if racists or sexists call me intolerant, but you can be sure that if my best friend who is a very sweet person said I’m being hateful then I would take that to heart and reevaluate my biases and preconceptions.
Honestly I don’t think about the past very much and I don’t think anyone thinks I’m nice now and I don’t care. Am I an asshole to everyone? Not if you don’t deserve it. Am I nice? No. I’m reliable, hard working, persistent, analytical but not nice. I’m an anti-racist, mutual aid oriented anarchist. My life worked out just fine. I paid off my home and have a family and friends and am winding it all down to relax while the world burns around us.
None taken, I really don’t care what you think nor does it affect me or my life in any way. I think that only a fellow asshole would take the time to send this message with your shitty walk back.

Honestly, from what I’ve read, you might come off as a self righteous asshole, no offence

Fair point
I absolutely agree. Let’s hope our inner assholes vanish one day. Stay strong, bother/sister
