    You don't have to travel to communicate with people halfway around the world.

    Your statement was "can't seek forgiveness". You've changed this to be "can't travel to confess" or victims would not "listen to them in the first place."

    The former is very different from the latter. They can seek forgiveness even if they can't travel there. They can seek it even if the victims wouldn't care.

    I'm not sure "seeking forgiveness" is the best framing. But its good for people to recognize the evil they've done and its good for them acknowledge that evil to their victims. Acting like they can't or shouldn't bother trying doesn't make sense.

      I apologize for changing the topic of conversation. I meant the second sentence primarily as another criticism of the general message of the original post, not a defense of my own original position.
