Call me crazy, but when this director/creator/showrunner, trying a redemption tour on for size, says that the dozens of people who accused him of horrific behavior are all wrong, and he is the one who is correct, that is doing much for your redemption.

Joss Whedon denies toxic behavior allegations made by ‘Justice League’ and ‘Angel’ cast members
Director Joss Whedon denied allegations made by a number of actors, including “Wonder Woman” star Gal Gadot, that he was verbally abusive and created toxic work environments on movie and TV sets.
In an interview Vulture published over the weekend, Whedon responded directly to Gadot’s allegation in May on the Israeli TV outlet N12 that he “kind of threatened my career and said if I did something, he would make my career miserable.”
Whedon said: “I don’t threaten people. Who does that?”
He went on to say, “English is not her first language, and I tend to be annoyingly flowery in my speech.”
In an email to New York magazine, Gadot disagreed with Whedon, saying: “I understood perfectly.” A representative for Gadot didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
His remarks in the profile are the first time Whedon has spoken out against the accusations that he fosters an abusive work environment on the set. – Source
