“I’ve been selfish, ignorant, harmful and reckless”: Joshua Bassett's Instagram post leaves netizens baffled

After Joshua Bassett made the Twitter post, he also penned down a lengthy account on his Instagram stories, titled speaking out/owning up. The actor wrote:

“Part of speaking out is owning up. It’s important to acknowledge and reflect on the ways that I’ve hurt people- some I may never speak to again. For those who will have me, I’m eager to ask forgiveness. The tongue is a sword, for better or for worse and our actions leave a stain.”

He continued his post by claiming how he has been “selfish” and “stupid”:

“I’ve been selfish, ignorant, harmful and reckless. Stupid, scared, desperate and desensitized. Careless, inconsiderate, intolerable and ugly. Mean, passive, impatient and stubborn. The list goes on.”

He also talked about how he doesn’t deny his shortcomings, but tries to do the best that he can. He concluded the post by claiming that he wants to walk every single day, in the direction of “love.” He said:

“If you know me, and my actions and/or inactions have caused you any pain and you’d like to talk, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I humbly seek forgiveness and wish to pursue only the purest love from here on out.”
