I want to apologize for my last post

[vercetti2021]

I I know it isn't my place to tell people to relax or feel different. I'm just very concerned people are making themselves feel worse in an already stressful time. Please know I'm just concerned for y'all and want y'all to be okay.

I know it's a scary time and week coming. But we are in this together. I'm not wanting to create division.

1. I'm with ya.

We all just need to chill and enjoy the hopefulness.

32. But Don't Let Up On The Enthusiasm

Keep telling your friends to vote, if they haven't yet. It's too important.

[MaryMagdaline]

2. No worries. We know what you meant - or most of us do

Happy to receive moral support from all DUers. That’s why I’m glued to this site 24 hours a day

[True Blue American]

14. Same here

Too many idiots elsewhere. I come here for sanity.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

3. I didn't see it.

I’ll go look for it, get offended, and come back to accept your apology.

[vercetti2021]

5. I deleted it

I think I was upsetting people unknowingly. It was just about not feeling gloom or doom. That it'll be okay. Some didn't like it

[True Blue American]

15. You would not have upset me.

We need that common sense.

12. ...

4. Ya, I am more on your side. I am enjoy and will continue to enjoy the next couple days. I have

waited a long time, we are almost there, and I am good with 90% chance. Gambling fool that I am. I am comfortable with the odds.

6. Awe, your so kind, just keep being yourself, don't let others weigh you down.

So many things in life to be thankful for and why should I let dump control my happiness.

Sure it pisses me off that he is pResident, but I know he is not my President. I didn't vote for him so none of his shit sticks to me at all.

We will survive and as long as we remain strong, we will win.

Much love!

7. Your a good person vercetti. Don't let anyone tell you differently.

I know that you meant well. I think that MineralMan and others meant well too. I'd wanted to make a post myself offering a pep talk and some encouragement but decided not to fearing a backlash. The last thing I want to do is cause more drama where none was intended. I care about the people here. As I said on that post, people are on edge. It's made me sad to see people sniping at each other over the last few days. I think people's anxiety over this election and the constant stress of the pandemic is making people lash out at each other when they otherwise wouldn't. Let's hang in there everyone.

35. Humans being humans...

Nothing to apologize for. You meant well and wanted to help.

[secondwind]

8. We are all in this together. You are a good soul....

Don't let anyone get you down...

[vercetti2021]

13. Too late

[roamer65]

9. Everyone is on edge right now.

That’s what life is like when we are on knife’s edge of a fascist dictatorship.

I didn’t see the post, but no worries mate.

[NoRoadUntravelled]

10. No Worries.

You care about how others feel and you meant well. In these anxiety ridden times sometimes people forget to consider the intention before becoming angry.

People's anger should be directed at the one whose policies resulted in locking babies in cages, taking away healthcare and sending armed troops to tear gas and shoot rubber bullets at peaceful protesters, etc., etc., etc.

[ancianita]

11. Hug it out and no worries!

We wouldn't be Democrats if we weren't fussing now and then.

[cwydro]

16. All good.

It IS a scary week. We all need to give each other a little leeway.

[True Blue American]

17. Try this.

[ailsagirl]

21. Thank you for posting this!!!

[vercetti2021]

22. Thank you

[catbyte]

18. Heck, I've got whiplash from transitioning from optimism to panic every 30 seconds or so.

[True Blue American]

20. Smile!

[COL Mustard]

33. Tuesday Will Be A Long Night

I hope to not get past 120 WTFs per hour!!!

[True Blue American]

19. Or this!

We have a right to be proud.

[sarge43]

23. That scene can still bring the healing tears.

We have a good man among us. Amazing Grace indeed.

[True Blue American]

25. He can shoot

A 3 point, too!

Now put him on the Supreme Court!

[sarge43]

27. A man for all seasons

Secretary of State. A fair share of the world trusts and admires him. He could do the healing again.

[LSFL]

24. It's all good vercetti

This is freedom hall...you can spit on the mat and call the cat a bastard.

If you don't ruffle some feathers and get hidden or feel compelled to self delete sometimes I would question your passion. Besides, you may be right. Four years ago I was very derogatory towards the Russians and suggested that American politicians in bed with them should get a sternly worded email. (Or be hung by the neck..Whatever.. Potato - potahto)

There was some backlash. History seems to have vindicated me to some degree. But keep on opining, have the humility to backtrack from your errors and keep on thinking, you beautiful meatsack.

[apkhgp]

26. Please do not worry about anything

I do not think you are divisive. Not in the least. The only person that needs to apologize for being divisive is 45. So y'all just sit tight and wait for this Tuesday when we can take back OUR White House.

[JonLP24]

28. You shouldn't worry about 1 or 2 posters that give you a hard time

You haven't posted anything that bothers me especially compared to what I see posted here and no apology for it.

[Tommymac]

29. No worries. Apology not needed but accepted.

These are trying times for all of us. Your op was not so bad.

We are going to take this one home to Joe & Kamala on Tuesday. No fucking doubt in my mind. We are working too dad gummit hard.

Then we get a few hours of celebration, and it's back to work to try and preserve as much of our Country, Our Traditions, and Our Constitution as we can until Jan 20 2021.

It will be different anxiety - but one that will have no doubt about the outcome - We The People are going to prevail in the end.

We are too fucking strong to Ignore - hear us ROAR!

[iluvtennis]

30. No worries, no offesnse taken.

[SheltieLover]

31. Everyone is just reallt stressed, V

[Aussie105]

34. Saw the original post and thought . . .

Fear and panic are quite appropriate human reactions under the circumstances.

It's a biological call to action for self preservation, except there is little you can actively do under the circumstances.

Recognize those feelings as a natural response. And yes, that gnawing feeling in your guts isn't pleasant.
But it makes you more careful about things, unlike the mask deniers, the COVID deniers, the heavy-breathers-right-next-to-your-face Trump rally attenders.
(And I know who has the best chance of surviving both the biological and emotional threats in our environment.)

To fight those feelings, you can concentrate on your normal daily routine, seek out those activities that bring comfort, and focus on staying virus free - you know, masks on when you need to go out, hand washing, sanitizer use, alcohol wipes, alcohol sprays, etc.

In short, no need to apologize.
