Apologize for one's opinion? Why? Is one deliberately basing their opinion on erroneous information?
Apologize for being factually wrong? Why is someone speaking about something, knowing that what they're saying is factually incorrect?
Nope...I don't apologize very often, mostly because I don't knee-jerk react in an emotional manner to what others say or do, thus making it necessary TO apologize, later, after the heat-of-the-moment has passed.
It's kind of a variation of the old adage, "Better to keep your mouth shut and let people think you a fool, rather than open it and remove all doubt...[and then have to apologize for it, later]."
You believe only royalty has the ability to think before they speak, so as to not have to apologize, afterwards?
Really?
Why is that, that only royalty has that ability? Better education? Better social skills? More money? Something else?
I don't agree with your statement, but I'd love to read why you believe someone who knows better than say things they later need to apologize for,
equates to a queen lording over her peasants.
Calm down. Don't be a Pesto*.
You are reading too much into smartwithsparks' post. She wasn't trying to ruffle your feathers.
You have to have a sense of humor when participating in a discussion with us peasants.
(*Pesto is a character in the comedy cartoon Animaniacs.)
