I find the Vocaloid fandom, its often scary to express any negative thoughts or to go against the flow. You can get punished if your not with the majority vote.

I think sometimes people are very quick to punish someone over something so small... So sometimes the forgiveness is something the person desires. Its easy to offend when expressing a thought or opinion carelessly. I did that when I criticized Jewel and Planty-P. People sometimes rage before their better reason comes along, or without questioning why someone does a particular thing or has a particular opinion.

I pull up the scenario wherein someone is stoned to death for a murder and halfway through when the person is scared and already half dead, someone suddenly comes forward with evidence that proves the person didn't commit the murder and COULDN'T have done it. This divides the crowd then between those who are apologetic, those who feel very guilty, those who may not believe the evidence and finally those who simply don't care. Its true what the song says (I forget which song) that "sorry" can be the hardest word for anyone to say. :-/

Hey we're human. We make mistakes. Its only bad when the person has no remorse or is deliberately manipulating people to their whim. But at the same time, its also hard to let go because betrayal DOES occur. At the same time... You let a murderer wonder the streets, you know they've done the crime once, whose to say they won't do it again? You can give people a second chance all you want by there are some individuals out there who never change.

In other words... Things are not black and white, and it makes everything so damn hard. >_<
