For years I've been thinking about high school days and hating the person I was. I want to apologize, but I live near the people I hurt anymore. Would it be ok to send them a DM?

Post Body

Edit: I don't live near them.

I made a lot of "jokes" in school that were, a lot of the time, at the expense of historically marginalized groups. When I was about 20 I really started to think about my actions and realized I may have(probably did) unintentionally hurt some people. Over the next few years I looked back and really began to hate who I was.

I want to apologize to the people I hurt. I don't have their address, so I can't write them letters. I could DM them, but that somehow seems cheap and insincere.

Am I overthinking it? Would a DM be ok?
