What he feels in his heart is absolutely his own business. He can process it however he needs to.
But I'm not looking into his heart. I'm making no claims to know what's in his heart. I'm looking at what he's said and done in public. And what has he said and done in public? As I said elsewhere in the thread, he's the one who made performative grief a part of his current persona. He's the one who's used his Grief (capitalized to distinguish his public performance of it rather than whatever true grief he may feel/have felt) as a tool to manipulate and abuse others.
I have absolutely no reason to believe that this one time he's being sincere as opposed to every other calculated comment and post he's ever made. And I am under no obligation to give him the benefit of the doubt when there are years of evidence warning me against doing so.
