"I know football has its tribalism but if no one around feels that this is unacceptable, well, we're in a really sorry place."
Arsenal managed to keep his move under wraps after Campbell was the subject of interest from other clubs in Europe and the 48-year-old described his first return to White Hart Lane as a player in 2001 feeling like an 'inferno of hatred'.
"We are talking about nearly a quarter of a century [since the transfer]," he added.
"Where are we going as human beings if someone cannot move on?
"I don't think people realise how hurtful the hate and vitriol is to me. I get the situation but it's been such a long time."
Despite apologising to Spurs supporters after making the move, the 48-year-old says he has no regrets about moving to their arch rivals.
"I'm sorry about the situation with me going and I’m sorry how it happened.
"I’m not going to apologise for the move (to Arsenal) because I was very successful.
"I’m sorry about the hurt it inflicted on them."
