Is it too late now to say sorry? No, we’re not singing Justin Bieber’s hit song from 2015. We’re genuinely wondering, because apparently, there are some people who are long overdue for a massive apology from the public.
Redditors have recently been discussing celebrities, scientists, public figures, and regular citizens who were treated extremely unfairly by the world. Whether they were publicly ridiculed for their discoveries or shamed for speaking out against injustices, it’s unfortunate that they didn’t receive apologies much sooner. But better late than never, right? Here’s a list of people that we sincerely want to say “I’m sorry” to.

Al Franken. His own party turned on him for something so trivial. He was a fantastic senator for my state of Minnesota and it absolutely devastated him to step down. I will never forgive Kirsten Gillibrand for leading the charge to remove him.
