I'm done for today.

I get people panicking, I feel it too.

But I've blocked so many people today for wishing for violence, saying voting doesn't matter, etc.

I have no tolerance for that. None.

And then one coming in saying that I was "for the status quo" and blocking me... that was mature. From kolektiva server, so there's that.

Seriously, I'm so over today.

I hope those of you who are more rational have a more peaceful evening.

Today sucked, but let's stay rational. PLEASE.

@GottaLaff Thank you, Laffy. I'm scared and worried, but you always have something to say that keeps my feet at least toetip on the ground!

I don't want violence (though I do agree with MLK about the voice of the unheard) -- but what I don't understand is why we aren't taking to the streets in peaceful protest nationwide. I guess somebody has to start it and lead it. But who is that person? Who are those people? Am I naive for thinking such a protest would effect any kind of beneficial change?

Sorry that you are getting that crap too. I think we all are getting some flack but you probably are targeted more because you do very good coverage of the days events every day.
Have a good evening and thanks for all you do for the community :blobcatheart:

@GottaLaff I guess I should just take my panicky irrational self, ignore the evidence of my own eyes and ears, and STFU. 😑

@stephenesherman If that’s how you interpreted what I said, then you should read it again. You’re way off.

You should read his derogatory posts and then seriously debate on whether you want to bother with someone like that...
He's a pundit.

If violence is the answer, allow me to ask, why did everyone get so upset about January 6 2021? In fact, Charlottesville, Oklahoma City Murrah Building, etc., etc.

Anger is fine, and frustration is fine... but put the energies that build along with those emotions to beneficial use. VOTE-VOTE-VOTE, state & federal elections, the vote is your cudgel.

@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@Atticus1956 which is exactly why I empathized with everyone… with the exception of suggesting violence and bashing voting. @stephenesherman

@stephenesherman @GottaLaff Deep breath Stephen. Your panic and irrationality doesn’t help anyone right now, not even you.

We need to think…and develop a plan. Beyond voting for Biden in Nov. What’s after that?

@GottaLaff silent lurker who you've helped understand all this. Remember Biden is and has smart people that have been anticipating worse case. I'd like to hope there is a plan for this already thought out. The immunity goes both ways. For now
