I find that to be a very weak argument.

Say I make fun of a racist. If they're just a poor propagandized individual who finally realizes their act, should I not shame them? Should I not ensure that they realize the depth of their behavior, the depth of their shame?

Shrugs I like to keep records. I don't like letting people off the hook after they shit the bed and force everyone else to clean it up while they figure out they don't like how it smells. I think that's weak behavior and a big part of the reason we're here today.

Edit: I'm ok with letting children off the hook. Kids are fucking dumb.

Fwiw I think you're correct. Everyone else wants to keep being nice to these morons. I say rub their face in it.
