@cbcns: Energy Minister Marco MacLeod answered reporters' questions on Thursday about a song he wrote and recorded in the past that contained misogynistic lyrics. Adsum House, a Halifax shelter that primarily serves women, said it was "sickened" by the lyrics and called for his removal. #cbcnews #novascotia #politics #news #halifax

Sorry he got caught. If he was sorry, he'd remove it. Pretty clear he needs to step down

the fact that he can't answer the question terrifies me about how he's going to operate.

I’ll translate. He put this up in 2013, and then re-uploaded it to the platforms in 2023.

Did Iain rankin apologize for his dui and firing a cabinet member for having an OF ? I feel like firing a female cabinet member for having supplemental income is misogynistic

Geez, you can hear the stress in his voice, he's accepted responsibility for the original source, he sounds genuinely apologetic, let's move on. Someone could have the song and repost it tomorrow, and it wouldn't be his fault. We can't scrub the internet.

And guess what? He likely will only end up blaming women for his downfall and hating us even more strongly.

You are right, you can't apologize enough, because that won't make it disappear and it won't wipe our memories! I am so sick of half-hearted apologies being "enough". 😳
