Refraining from being an asshole doesn't make someone a good person. It's the bare minimum for being a normal non-hateful person. It's good for his personal journey and his family, but I don't have to fete and applaud him.

Well, growing up around the people I did, seeing any amount of change in someone like this gives me hope. And he's doing much more than "not being an asshole". Please at least read the article.

Yeah, yeah. He's an "advocate for change" or something. But only for things that affect him. What are his opinions on whether the 2020 election was "stolen", or God forbid his opinions on black people?

I don't know, it wasn't stated in the article. Do you actually know the answers to these questions or are you jumping to conclusions that fit your own personal bias?
