As someone whose social life was primarily online growing up, I have thousands of chat logs of myself from the age of 13 and up.
Not only should we not judge people too much for the past, but it can actually be *fun* to go back and look at it!
Or to track growth.
Essentially, what I am saying is, let's turn this permanent public record into a *positive*.
Your online footprint is like a journal of your life. It's all an opportunity to be more open with each other, which should theoretically be good if people can move past judgment.
And to be clear, it's not just "past comments" we shouldn't judge too much for.
Sometimes I post something and two minutes later I realize it was wrong or that I had no idea why I said that.
Not any different than the countless times we've said something dumb IRL.
