Actress Anat Waxman apologizes for her remarks against right-wing voters.<\/p>\r\n
Does she have anything to apologize for?<\/p>\r\n
In my opinion, no. She has nothing to apologize for, she has no one to apologize to.<\/p>\r\n
She said what she thought and anyone can say what they think.<\/p>\r\n
Those who heard her words chose to be offended - and rightly so. But she shared her opinions with us, and that is very important.<\/p>\r\n
You can't stand up to a person and force them to apologize for their thoughts, not even for putting them in writing or on screen (as long as they don't incite murder).<\/p>\r\n
She said she hates Mizrahi, she hates right-wingers, she is known to hate Haredi - so what?<\/p>\r\n
She is allowed.<\/p>\r\n
She probably feels so lost that the things she always thinks came out of her heart this time, and were finally said in front of the audience.<\/p>\r\n
It doesn't matter where her hatred comes from. These are the things she said from her heart.<\/p>\r\n
You can't apologize for thoughts. There's no point in apologizing for opinions. These are her opinions, and even if she apologizes, they won't change.<\/p>\r\n
The people who were offended by her words - chose to be offended. But what does insulting do? Insulting humiliates the offended and elevates the insulter. If they chose to be offended by her words, it's a sign that she's worth it. A sign that she's worth addressing.<\/p>\r\n
There is no point in apologizing for these thoughts, opinions, and feelings, and even if you apologize for them, they will remain inside you.<\/p>\r\n
A person who apologizes for his opinions because he fears for his job - has not changed his opinions, but only his words. And whoever changes his words because he fears for his source of income, will end up having them resurface and be said again and again, perhaps in a more intelligent way, in less problematic places - but they will be said.<\/p>\r\n
On the other hand, if the offended people, who recognize her as an actress, knew how to take action, raise their heads proudly, and keep their feet away from every place she steps and treads - then, over time, this entire perverse view that Anat Waxman represents will automatically be rejected from the face of the earth.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"She said she hates right-wingers, she's known to hate Haredim.
