These people have been cheering on the most heinous shit for years, feel free to reconcile with that at your own risk, but leave me the fuck out.

I think "admit" is the wrong word here. Is it implying that someone knows they're wrong but won't admit it (calling them a liar)?

Why not just say, "You weren't wrong but you were lied to"?

Or simply "Let's agree that we were all lied to".

This is much better, thank you.

Yup. The message is still mildly abrasif and will not work knowing the snowflakes it is aimed at.

Mark Twain said it is hard to convince people they are the victim of a lie.

They would rather continue the lie than admit they were wrong.
