    Fine, let’s go with James Gunn and his firing by Disney because of past Twitter comments. James was quick to explain, publicly, that he had stupid past decisions and doesn’t stand by them anymore as he has grown as a person. It took that as well as others advocating for him for Disney to consider bringing him back. It wouldn’t have happened without the people advocating for him who know him.

    I understand your point and agree. I am asking how that is not punishing someone using retroactive thought crime. I’m asking you, how is it defined if you think that example isn’t an example? At literal translation, it defines it perfectly whether you agree with who or what it happened to or not.
