First apology video where someone is actually sorry
Literally
yep
This is an apology, not a strategic move like other ‘apologies’
Funny thing is, I think more of him for doing this. Not less. And personally, I didn’t think either things were that bad since comedy comes in many forms. However, props to anybody for legitimately going out of their way to apologize for something 99.9% of their audience was not even aware of.
It’s evidence that he didn’t get backlash for those videos, but he made an apology video, which 0 youtubers do
This is what we call character development
Describing Tom as a character is disgusting, he is a person. This comment feels like an insult
:v ur opinion
Agreed we develop and grow out of opponions and stupidity racism ect it's human nature

He’s says it as a joke and if you can’t handle the internet well...

I agree
That first story about the racist meme video? That was an apology. There's a lot of shitty apology videos from bigger creators around right now, with the crying and apologising and taking things back and saying they didn't mean it and all that, and it feels superficial and insincere. This, this story here, is how you do an apology video. As a minority who knows exactly what the black guy was feeling throughout all of that from my own experiences, as far as I'm concerned, that was a proper apology. You thoroughly acknowledged what you did wrong, you said why it was wrong, you got input from the wronged community, you didn't excuse anything, and you didn't make it about you. That is an apology that I completely believe and if I were the wronged party, I (personally) would be willing to accept it. People grow and change, and this is a clear example of that.
Agreed
How can someone just say "You should appologize but I still can't support you anymore"? Not only is this video a great appology, but you can't just run out like that when you demand someone to do something
@@isaywhateveriwantandyougot7421 yes you can, you can find out people have been problematic and say "hey, thank you for the apology but I no longer want to be associated with your content/community" you don't have to accept an apology to acknowledge it. If J.K Rowling suddenly apologized for being a transphobic twat who heavily contributed to the FART community, I would acknowledge her apology and stand by that I want nothing to do with anything she's ever created because her actions have negatively affected me personally and my fellow trans people. You do not have to accept apologies and you can move on without accepting them.
@@SwedishBs I never asked for J.K. Rowling's apology. I accepted that she's a bad person and never wanted to be associated with her. If you don't like what Tom did and don't take his apology, that's fine but don't go demanding him to do so in the first place.
@@isaywhateveriwantandyougot7421 you dodged their main point by attaching to the analogies
I honestly didn’t think you’d ever address the Lincoln hack videos. I have much more respect for you man.
I honestly repsect Tom for constantly trying to betting himself, not just with his craft to make better quality videos but with everything he does to be inclusive for everyone
the depression anxiety OCD AS autism ADHD boi stfu
He could have just kept these deleted videos in the shadows but he did the right thing and talked about them and acknowledge that it was wrong.
@@bim7355 yeah He knows that its not good enough for him to know they're bad but to show everyone why they're bad
to move on he has to forgive himself.
yes! :)
imo, anyone who doesnt think people can grow out of their old values (aka shitty jokes etc.) are... not nice. You've changed, you're better, keep on truckin' Tom
I think it's nice that you can see that he's genuinely sorry. I didn't know about these things he did, but i see he's not the same now, so I'm ok with him. It's kinda sad that there will still be people going around saying he's racist and homophobic and stuff, but it's not true anymore.
That's not the point, the point is that that kind of behaviour is unacceptable, and no matter how much he apologizes or try to make up for it, it will never take back the damage he has done.
It's important to understand that what makes this "apology video" ok is that he holds himself accountable for the fucked up things he did and he acknowledged that his damage is permanent
The guy that he was racist at does not have to say " oh you are nice now ok bye" because we have no idea what that did to him, there are people that are so fucking tired of hearing apologies and are just expecting others to not do shitty things
Good lad
Bruno Veiga what do you want them to do, not say sorry? People ask people who have been shitty in the past to say sorry, then berate them for saying sorry and saying that it is not enough. Why are people so cynical? Do you really think people can't change. They can and will. While its easy to fake a sorry with tears and sighing heavily, you can tell whether its real or not. What do you want him to do? Please tell.
anyone who thinks people can't grow out of old values are usually people who can't change themselves
All that matters is that Tom isn’t still like that. He bettered himself. I believe your past mostly doesn’t matter if you better yourself and fix yourself.
it does matter! we really shouldn't sweep things under the rug just because they happened a while ago. it's important to acknowledge that it matters and that the person worked on themselves and grew from it. it gives more acknowledgement to the person for overcoming such behaviour but also holds them acccountable for never stepping down to that level again and having the ''i didnt know'' excuse, because they KNOW that such behaviour wrong.
Bambi I agree with both of you, but if you are commenting on his video, then you have already forgiven him
@@hot_dog_water2437 i never said i didnt forgive him. i just pointed out its important to not forget to past even if i have
@@bambii-_ i do agree with that
@@hot_dog_water2437
By your logic, did you also forgive him? Lmao
It's not my place to comment on the racism, but as an LGBT+ person, I can say you've consistently supported us over the last few years, and you're clearly not the person you were when you made that video. If we don't give people the chance to prove they've changed for the better, then what's the point in them trying to improve themselves in the first place.
Well said!
As another commenter has already mentioned, his T-Shirt is a clear example of how he is continuing to better himself, which is excellent.

@@_DrMemes you shouldn't be supported either if that's fair enough.
@@_DrMemes Elaborate
I dont think you "got off with it". I think that you genuinely made an effort to better yourself and reach out to communities in a lot of ways that demonstrated that you were not a bad person and in fact a very good ally. you have and you keep speaking up about issues of Injustice wether it be the LGBT community or the black lives matter movement and we all see and hear it. You've changed for the better and unlike other CZcamsrs it has been very obvious
I agree as well
True
This is exactly what I wanted to say. Coming out like this is also amazing as you can tell he is genuinely sorry for these things.
I don't agree with your premise. Any effort he put into improving himself doesn't really play into whether he "got off with it." He was referring to how he hasn't been held accountable by the public, by his audience. He's done these things and they've essentially been forgotten about. He hasn't been made to grovel before the cancel cult as so many others have. This information is only coming to attention now, entirely on his terms, accompanied by his side of the story.
@@SoulSukkur would you rather have people try to hide these things or just forget about them? When something like this is found out the first thing people ask is why hadn't they addressed it before. He's addressing it now, before anyone else does. There would be no reason to if he thought he had gotten away with it and didn't care about consequences for his actions
Props to you for owning up to your past mistakes by yourself, rather than waiting until you were called out for it
massive respect on that part
It’s called protecting a brand.
If he was only doing it to protect a brand, then he wouldn't have made the video, at least not now. He would have waited until he was actually called out by a significant number of people before making the apology. Instead he actually owned up to his mistakes, on his own terms and without any noticeable persuasion.
@@CrazyHowlingDog protecting a brand is making the apology after people start accusing him of racism and homophobia just like logan paul
I wanted to like tbis comment but it has 420 likes and i cant bring myself to ruin it
@@CrazyHowlingDog His brand was already protected because he deleted the videos. He didn't have to make this apology.
As someone who is gay, and has been watching tomska for years, and has seen him be honest and open with almost every facet of his life- dude, you’ve become a whole different person. There has been a 180 shift since then, and you’re forgiven, at least on my part.
There is a difference between those who get caught with their pants down and apologize because it is expected, and those who truly realize the error of their ways and actively work to better themselves as time goes on. Tom is one of the best examples of someone who is genuinely remorseful about his past and it shows through his years of constant betterment. What he did was not okay, but he is no longer the same guy.
I guess you could say Tom realised his pants were down so he pulled them up himself.
The fact you show regret and remorse shows your a different person
a worse one, i agree

Your I like trans t-shirt is blatant evidence of how you've bettered yourself from some of the deleted videos
I would have prefered if he kept them online, hiding your mistakes is never a good thing
Well he showed them to us here and in other scrap'd
Yes but if he really assumed that he fucked up in the past he would have kept all the videos as unlisted, stop hiding the truth mate
@@TheOmegaGamer Keeping them up would only be further damaging to those he offended. In addition, if they're found out of context, there's very limited linearity on the internet and people may not realise Tom's growth since those videos. Why would you want to keep offensive videos with slurs available for public viewing when he has addressed them and included them here? It's not hiding, it's protecting others who don't need to see it.
@@TheOmegaGamer Keeping the videos out there with no context just perpetuates the problem
As an LGBTQ person, I (personally) have no hesitations about forgiving you for your past homophobic behaviour. People are capable of change, and denying that only serves to ostracise people who have earnestly sought to right their past mistakes. You have repeatedly shown your support for the LGBTQ community and are one of a select few online comedians who are capable and willing to make jokes involving the community but not at the expense of the community, which I truly appreciate.
I fully agree. I’m also LGBTQ and while it still isn’t ok the fact that he is genuinely sorry and realises his wrongdoings is more than most people who have said stuff in the past do. I respect you for doing this Tom.
And that is how you should make an apology on the internet
Komdy
NIGHT_COR3 how do I find you everywhere in the comments?
@@SashaYein what?
Tom. You admitting to it and being serious about what you did being messed up is important. I'm not really affected by any of it but you being able to look back and understand why it's a problem is very important
Your actions speak more than your words since this stuff happened seems to show you have "grown up". And that is important
Yeah, this could cause other youtubers and public figures to do the same. This is the healing our society needs
Hes literally holding himself accountable and explaining why what he did was wrong beyond just 'its a slur'.

@@waffoo101thedankest5 your comments? your not the real tomska lol
Whist other youtuber’s apology videos contain things like fake crying, telling their fans how sorry they are for doing something bad and then after a few days, completely forgetting about it.
Tom, however, looks sincerely sorry about what he did 9 years ago and rather then just leaving it alone, he is owning his mistakes up.
Good job Tom; you are a great person! And we appreciate you for that
Thank you for not hiding from the problematic things that you did when you were younger and actually talking about it in a mature and reflective way that not only says you're sorry but also explains why it was wrong. Also, I appreciate that you did not wait for someone else to call you out for it, like so many others, and instead brought it up yourself.
You've definitely made growth, you've talked up on matters of racism recently and you do help out with lgbt+ issues like the 12 hour stream and the shirts, a lot of youtubers say they've grown then don't show up and the fact you've actually grown into a better person who is willingly to help. Thank you for speaking about it and not trying to hide your mistakes.

Hey Tom,
I'm white so I can't accept your apology for the racism as it's not my place. However, I am Bisexual (and trans, but that's not the point), and I accept your apology for the homophobia. Obviously I don't speak for the wider LGBT+ community, but seeing what you do now, the pride flavour shirt, the I like trans shirt, supporting LBGT+ people and generally just being a solid dude (as in a good man, not physically solid lol), I think you've made amends. Yes, it was MASSIVELY fucked up for you to do, but you've learnt your lesson. You're doing better now.
I've been a fan since I was 13 (I'm now 18), and I'm glad to see you've made the active decision to become a better person. I still support you in the things you do now, even if ya fucked up in the past.
Love you, dude
Yeah I'm part of the lgbtq+ and I accept his apology because he realized how bad he was and that he doesn't want to say
this massive 10 minute apology made me respect him even more.
Physically, he's jelly
and I love him
This is a little late but here’s my take on this.
Tom, I’m a POC, I’ve watched you for the longest time and never knew you made these remarks. And while they were disgustingly abhorrent and awful in everyway shape or form I simply cannot express how proud I am that you stepped up and said “I did this, it isn’t who I am anymore but if you aren’t okay with supporting me I completely understand”. I knew from the moment you said you were going to be showing these awful things that you did instead of hiding behind them that you had grown and changed as a person and that that isn’t who you are anymore.
Again, I’m so happy you “exposed yourself” for the negative person you were as opposed to in a way continue being one by hiding this away in a mental vault.
i think it’s very important that you addressed it tom. i’m proud of you. and i think that it’s also obvious to anyone who’s watched you for the past years know you’re a wonderful ally who’s grown from his past
Shut up he's only doing it so K-pop stans won't cancel him

@@suggley5860 Why would people cancel him if he deleted the videos? He didn't have to bring this up.
It takes a really good person to acknowledge their faults,, air them out, apologize, and not make excuses to further better themselves. You have changed a lot Tom, but it is definitely for the better. I love you man, you are the best. 🙏
It’s nice to see a creator genuinely apologize for something, and not even have to get called out for it, but apologizing because he’s legitimately sorry.
Tom is the only youtuber who was sorry for the thing he did, not the backlash he got in return

These videos were yikers but you're one of few people who ACTUALLY grow on this platform. Thank you for growing and helping me grow as well.
I don't think they can really copyright the name "justin time" considering it's a joke & pun which has been used long before their show ever existed, and it's two words which have also existed long before they were even born. This is the very reason why Mortal Kombat was spelled how it was, so they could copyright it, which they couldn't if they spelled it correctly.
Agreed but you know how laws will always favor the big company over the small creator.

Hey man, I am incredibly glad that you're looking back and thinking, "Damn that was all terrible, people need to know I used to make really hurtful content." That takes courage to accept. Glad you arent your past self any more. Nice work buckaroo.
tom, i've only been following you since 2016 but from what i've seen and what you've put out- you're genuinely trying to make amends, apologise, and move on- not in a way that you want to "sweep everything under the rug", but rather, be a better human being in general. it shocked me, watching "last week", the way you'd handle criticism (e.g. the last week titled "last week i shot a stripper" which upset some sex workers watching) because up til that point i hadn't seen a creator on this platform so freely and easily take criticism on his videos and actions and make amends and want to do what is right by the people watching. instead of just brushing them off and telling them "it's just jokes!" you sat down, took the time to properly reflect how that title could have caused people to be uncomfortable, apologise, and changed the title to something more nondescript. it's so obvious to me and your viewers that you don't "apologise" because you're scared of getting "caught" (because a lot of the stuff mentioned, esp in "last week" could have been so easily swept under the rug and everyone would be none the wiser) but instead because you're genuinely trying to be a better human being and just want to do GOOD. and i can't thank you enough for that. i can't say i'm not disappointed, watching these old videos of yours, but i do know, unlike other creators who've had videos of this nature in their catalogue, you have GENUINELY tried to make amends and right what is wrong- and this video is a prime example of that! in an age where "apology videos" are rife with manipulative tactics, false emotions and insincerities, it warms my heart to see a creator such as yourself being GENUINE and upfront about his past mistakes and failures. and i can't thank you enough. the platform needs more people like you. sending you lots of love tom, i hope you are doing well.

as an lgbt+ person, this is validating and genuinely impressive (even tho it should be normalised) that you have taken accountability for your actions and not just tried to hide them like kicking ice under the fridge. thank you :)
He clearly feels bad. I really respect this guy for acknowledging the deleted videos stuff here, cause it would have been way easier to just pretend it didn’t happen. Good person. We support and love you, Tom, and you ought to be proud of yourself for talking about it and owning up to your mistakes
I think this apology works so well, cause a) its real. He meant it. b) he gave exactly the reason he was wrong. c) it was unprompted. No one made him do it. It was just *him*
It's crazy how even when people own up to their past, someone starts digging again and tries to start more controversy, it's dumb.
This. We have to allow people to grow. Tom has shown over and over that he really isn't the same person anymore and you can tell in how he addresses this that he really is remorseful.
Cancel culture sucks, it's just 15 year olds sitting in their rooms being bored so they insert their life into someone else's to make themselves feel important and needed.
Right, unless it’s largely immoral/illegal..
I'm white, so I can't speak pertaining to the racist videos, but, as a nonbinary lesbian, I want to thank you for talking about the homophobic ones.
A lot of creators will try to pretend that their past mistakes never happen, and will only apologize once someone calls them out for it.
It really seems like you honestly regret your past decisions, and work to improve yourself, so yeah, thanks. ✌️ We love to see it.
with all due respect, why use the terms nonbinary AND lesbian? don’t they cancel each other out?

dumby thiccrudy the term is trixic! being an enby lesbian is actually labelled as trixic, but the label isn’t very well known. of course they can identify however feels right.

I feel like Tom is the Jenna Marbles of this community and I'm honestly so proud of him for outing his past mistakes and taking the time to explain why they're wrong and where he stands towards his actions now compared to when he did it.
tom, that wasnt okay, but we understand that you've grown. hey, look at the shirt you're wearing! im very proud of you for admitting to your past actions and it takes a hell of a person to come out and say that. instead of waiting for it to get leaked. thank you for apologising, I understand. I know you arent like that anymore. love, luc ❤❤
I have a question to all of those outraged by his previous actions.
What kind of bullshit did you lot get up to when you were teenages and early 20s?
How relieved are you that you weren't stupid enough to record it for the internet to cry about 10 years later?
I'm not saying that he was right to make the videos, but don't pretend for even one second that you didn't say something similar in your youth.

Hi Tom,
I'd like to thank you for admitting to yourself your past flaws and acknowledging how damaging some aspects of your past have been on others, instead of hiding.
I have been a fan of yours for more years than I can count (also the person who sent you that melty chocolate in last week) so its hard for me to see and hear about your past actions.
Your apology however seemed very sincere and I've noticed your efforts to continuously better yourself over the years.
I am a trans woman and I accept your apology Tom, heres to bettering ourselves
Really proud of you sharing the first two video clips, I find it very important to not only express regret and remorse but to break down the reasons why it's bad and why it's not ok. I don't see a lot of people making videos apologizing for past videos. Really proud of how far you've come and I've loved your content for years and can't wait to see what kind of dude you become in the future!!!
Honestly hearing some of the stuff Tom did in his early days makes me nauseous, and it's difficult to say how I feel about it. I know he hates who he was, I know he's removed the harmful videos, I know he thinks and acts differently, and even then it feels weird to be forgiving another creator for saying something hateful or ignorant.
I've been watching Tomska since Eddsworld. I think most of us probably would forgive someone we know has changed so much and been so outspoken against the kind of person he used to be... But I want people to know that even if everyone here forgives him, nobody needs to. Don't feel pressured, and respect people's decision. There is no right or wrong answer.
Have you grown? Learned from those mistakes? Feel shameful about your actions? If yes, then I'd think your past should not a problem.
We live in the present, not the past.
who gets to choose how he feels about and talks about his past actions: you or him? the past exists and if he feels like he should talk about it i feel like this kind of weird snarky dismissal does nothing but harm the concepts he's talked about
Wow, the point of this whole video went way past your head.
this is going to be the biggest yikes i'm going to watch
edit: yep.
I know I'm watching this 3 years after it originally came out but I thought it was really cool that he addressed the (morally) bad videos without someone else pointing them out then coming out with a half assed apology video
You're one of the most genuine youtubers I watch, and it makes you so much more entertaining to watch. Seeing videos like this just proves how genuine and nice you can be since we can tell that those apologies were sincere. Thank you for apologising and bettering yourself as a person, and thank you for the incredibly entertaining videos!-- side note holy shit I forgot about Bing
"The main problem with the video, other than me rapping..."
Dang man, have a little self confidence
Did you hear that clip? That wasn’t lack of self confidence that was self awareness
I get that the words were bad but he addressed that separately, this line was just him calling himself out for rapping in general
It's a good thing that you address these deleted videos.
So gutted this series has come to an end but Tom you constantly make me laugh with everything you make, also fair play for addressing your past... can tell you’ve grown a lot as a creator 👏👏
I think that you have explained the situation and your mistakes very well and have actually brought them to our attention even though like you say you could have kept quiet and swept it under the rug, so I respect you for addressing your mistakes and apologizing for them. Keep up great work Tom!

Well apart from the racism it seems to be just a bit of a crazy thing

Thankyou for the beginning, you’re not hiding from your mistakes and it takes a lot to be so open
I can't speak for everyone, but i can speak for myself, as a part of the lgbt+ community. And one thing i do know, is that actions speak louder than words. If you just spoke about this problem now, without any other context, i would have a different view on things. But over the past few years you have supported and acknowledged so many of our causes, and showed your growth as a person. The things you did weren't nice, hell they were pretty f*cked up. but you've shown that you changed, and you recognized your mistakes. I know i can't speak for everyone, but i support you, as a changed guy. Keep making great videos
Im so proud of you showing us this Tom. Glad to see that you turned into a better person with the years
Watching this has shown me not only how much Tom has changed, but how much we have as an audience.
I used to think the BBC skits and the Lincoln Hack videos were the height of comedy. Now I just cringe 😬
Change can be a good thing!
I don't think that an apology could ever replace how you made that guy feel in the video, At that time! HOWEVER, I think that you coming forward on your own free will and addressing it as a mistake as well as showing how you genuinely despise your previous actions shows a real level of maturity and growth. You have grown into an amazing adult who respects all genders, nationalities, beliefs, etc... You care for people and you value everyone with the same respect you'd wish on yourself. I think you've grown up, and that it takes a real man to confront his mistakes.
Can I just say that if you aren't LGBTQ+ or PoC, THIS ISN'T YOUR APOLOGY TO ACCEPT. You can not turn around and say, "Your loyal followers will stick with you" or say "Ah we forgive you" if you aren't the affected party.
As someone who falls into both these categories and has watched Tom for years, I am both shocked and appalled about the behaviour that was displayed and the whole, "It was acceptable back then" isn't an excuse. It wasn't acceptable for PoC and LGBTQI+ people.
This being said, I have seen Tom be an advocate for not only BLM but Gay and Trans rights. Whilst I can't say I know Tom personally, I have met him a handful of times now and acknowledge the apology. He didn't wait to be caught and am still remaining a loyal subscriber and follower.
Well, the non LGBTQ+ or PoC can still say “Your loyal followers will stick with you” but they can’t say the “Ah we forgive you” bit since they don’t need to forgive him. So half correct, half wrong.
@@Bruh-bp6nn in the most literal sense, yes, his loyal followers will remain, but what that does is gaslight those who decide to leave. You victim shame people who are, rightfully, hurt but the things that were said. So, if you wanna talk Oxford definitions, sure, but we both know that people on the internet don't mean it like that.

As someone who is white and straight, we can still acknowledge this fucked up shit and realise what he did was a horrible thing that shouldn't just be excused because "that's how things were". There's no excuse for a human to put down anyone especially for who they are born as. I can absolutely see how the groups involved were offended and if they don't want to accept his apology, I respect their decision.
We can also see people's actions and know what they're doing it for. Tom has been advocating for LGBTQ+ community and has talked a bit about BLM and shown he is in support of equal rights. That shows me he's changed or is at least trying to better himself. Again, if anyone was offended and doesn't want to support him, absolutely understand and respect their decision.
_Kaizure well my point is people can say that because it’s not harmful
This, now this, is a real apology video. A true, pure intentioned one and on his own accord
Logan Paul: cries in rediculous fasion and just says "I'm sorry" all the time
I appreciate your candidness. There’s a lot of hurt for me, here. But I think this video was the right thing to do. Especially addressing the “worst” bits first. Not sure how I feel at the moment, but I still appreciate you doing this and I hope you feel that appreciation from people.
The fact you're willing to bring these to light means you've grown as a person and you own your mistakes and are amazing!
"One thousand and eighty pee high definition"
man that hurts on a new level
This was an actual apology video. It felt sincere. It felt real. It felt like Tom really, really regretted what he had done. And, he made this whole half hour long video just to say that he was sorry for everything. I once watched Logan Paul, and then, he made that horrible video where he found a real dead body, and he smiled most of the video. He looked happy. And his apologies sucked. I will never watch or support Logan Paul again, but as for Tom, I can honestly say, if I were among those affected by that content, I wouldn't have it in my heart not to forgive him. This only makes me like Tom as a person even more. :-)
I feel like cyborg timetravelling Anne frank is a sentence that has never been said before
Tom, I've followed you from almost the beginning, you've grown and changed and you are so much of a better person. I'm so proud of who you've become and I know you'll only continue to improve as time goes on.
Let's be honest, no one is the same as they were 10 years ago, people change and they can better themselves
Point Number One: This is an admirable example of an apology on the Internet. Tom was never called out for those videos apart from the one person who asked him to take down the Lincoln Hack videos. Rather than apologising because he got caught, he genuinely saw the error of his ways over time and decided to bring them up and apologise for doing it. This is how you apologise.
Point Number Two: TOM WAS FRIENDS WITH ZACH HADEL?!?!?! I love Zach so that's really cool
I respect you SOOOO much for this!!! You have grown so much and It's great that you yourself are owning up to those misteps instead of just leaving it. In the words of ad-rock “I'd rather be a hypocrite than the same person forever.”
You just continue to suprise me man. ive watched everything youve putout since maybe 2011 and have grown alongside your channel. The way you have spoken about your teenage years and the person you were and why you thought this way honestly inspires me. You have shown that even from the most naive and ignorant places on the internet, everyone has room for growth. You have never excused any of your actions i see you take responsibility for past tom time and time again. You as a person go to show that everyone can grow and deserves the right to be better and im proud of the way you have delt with this and all your other past failings. keep it up man, thank you
I recently got my muffin time game. Thank you so much!!!
Calling yourself out is a high level of maturity
This is the first CZcams apology video to actually admit that there in the wrong
Thank you for talking about this stuff, as a newer fan I really appreciate you addressing these things. I wish more people were like you!
Very brave to accept your mistakes and put them in the public eye
Personally I think that the part at the start was good because it shows change and honesty with mistakes instead of sweeping it under the rug or saying that what he did was correct
Your sincerity in this video is honestly one of the most beautiful and touching things I've ever seen. Keep growing Tom, the progress you've made is incredible.
I'm seriously about to cry,I'm so proud of himmmm
Everyone makes mistakes Tom, you’re owning up to them and apologizing for everything you’ve done. If nobody else will say it I will. As a part of the LGBT community I forgive you for everything you’ve done that might’ve offended us. You’ve done so much to support the community and it is going to do no good to continue to lash yourself for it. Just keep up being a better man than you once were. As I always say, perfection is for heroes and god so try to do your best as a human.
Tom, I accept your apology. As a member of the lgbt community I know for a fact, that most people grow out of homophobia. And watching you in the past few years, how much of an ally you are, it brings me a lot of hope. You were such a role model to me, you helped me through my depression, and taught me its okay to be who I am. And yes, that shit was fucked up, but you are really owning up to it, and you seem genuinely sorry for the things you did. I will still support you.
I just wonder why almos all youtubers from that time who made comic stuff were homophobic and racist
@@uselessgamer9978 probably because they all idolised and imitated eachother. youtube was still pretty seperate in style from other types of media at the time, so the main source of inspiration for youtubers was other youtubers. then all it takes is for one person to have that edgy style and it can become the norm.
It's genuinely good you recognize your past shortcomings and always try to be better. Not enough people bother to see anything wrong with themselves.
I 100% respect you for consistently trying to better yourself and hold yourself accountable for your past mistakes even when no one else will and that is something I strive for
