I am not excusing him groping people. But I see someone coming to terms and acknowledging the mistakes and harm he did.

Sharing his experience and talking about the mistakes he made and how bad it was is just a net positive for all - I mean he is still a role model and can influence young people - so I see no value in cancelling him. I would agree with you if he was still groping or promoting such behaviour, which doesn't seem to be the case.

I know all this doesn’t fix anything for the victims, and it is terrible for them.
