When I started on Twitter in 2018, I followed George Galloway - boosted his work. I didn't know much about him bar his anti war stuff.
I stop following a long time ago, but I want to apologize for enabling him.
I try to use my platform responsibly and learn from my mistakes.

2/ We all make mistakes on social media. It's how we address them that is important.
I followed Galloway for too long out of misplaced loyalty & just plain ignorance.
That's not acceptable. It's on me.
All I can do is try to show I'm learning and trying to do better.

3/ Galloway is just one example.
Too many people turn a blind eye to problematic views until it's too late, either out of misplaced loyalty and/or fear of a backlash.
It can be hard to call out people you previously admired or believed in, but it's the right thing to do.

4/ Don't come at me with, "but Starmer" either. Don't.
That doesn't excuse Galloway's dog whistle Racism, endorsing Islamophobic candidates and boosting ex UKIP MEP coburn. Also, he's literally telling people to vote Tory.
You don't tolerate Racism ever.
