Do you think pulling up someone’s past of saying the Nword and calling them out is beneficial, even if they don’t use it today?

I’m talking person was 14 and they’re now 25 and people are pulling up their old tweets or insta posts where they use then word, do you think it’s beneficial.

Personally, if the person has stopped or changed from that time, I would say let the past be the past. The amount of kids I went to school with had no idea what it meant and everyone used it. Now, if said person is now 25 and still using it and acting racist, then call them out. Cancel couture is getting a little old
