Honestly with Bari Weiss
Tiger Mom Amy Chua Takes Washington

No, nobody, no, no. That's not the kind of stuff they apologize for. They apologize to, you know, for Native American land confiscation. And it doesn't matter to you that you'll never get that closure? No, you know, I think bitterness and I found that I can't write, I can't do things, you know. I just like, just let it go, just let it go and try something else, do something fun.

You know, for me, what worries me is not that some people have those positions. People can't have any positions. like to free speech. So this is actually, I remember about five years ago in a big criminal law class, a student stood up and said, this is not my class, but I heard about this, abolish prisons, defund the police. And tons of students came to me afterwards.

It was like a 100-person class and said, this was so ridiculous. Oh my god, or whatever. And I was like, did anybody say anything? Did you say something? And they're like, no, nobody said anything. And I said, they're brave. They're vets. They served in Afghanistan. These are amazing people. Why did nobody say anything? And I was so struck. They were like, oh, it's not worth it.

They were like, it's just not worth it, like, you know, to be canceled or whatever. And believe it or not, it has a lot to do with dating. Say more. Well, I mean, you know, you're young, you were starting off, you want to have parties, whatever, and you're going to come out and be the person that is whatever, you know.
