No Good Apologies

It might be too late to even be thinking about this. It's almost 2am, I was working on schematic sketch of sorts. Is there no Good Apology? I wonder what the social media world expects. Again I think I mentioned this in my last post. Perhaps apologies can not be accepted because we're lacking the old societal structures.
People rarely exercise courtesy. The days of please and thank yous and any sort of acknowledgement of existence has been replaced with passive aggressive snark, indirect communication, or awkward silence that is actually fairly loud.
There can be satisfaction in forgiveness but you are not obligated to forgive. If you, in my black space opinion, spend your time, every time someone is mentioned, reminding the world of a person's wrongs, a wrong in which they acknowledged and genuinely apologizes for, then you are indeed a problem. Or a miserable cunt. At some point you are just harassing and you're more than a terrible person. I believe in saying "I'm Sorry" or "I apologize" I don't fret much over my experiences with what is considered rudeness, but I do think about how it affects everyone's day.
Oh well, time for bed.
