That's funny, I don't recall the Mayor tacking on a condemnation of the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan/Iraq onto his post about the anniversary of 9/11, much less one three times longer than the initial statement.
Maybe that the Mayor can’t explictly come out & say that - so he said the other - while your comment makes you appear, to some, to be siding with Netanyahu, Charles.
Not telling you how to feel. Just noting you seem unusually upset today, so just trying to warn you that’s how you’re coming off…
I understand why.
I also know you're a public person and acting out isn't generally good for one's public persona.
You do you, my friend. But just trying to flag that for you in case you didn't realize.
"acting out?"
Shawn, you're a friend of mine and I know you mean well but I really, REALLY don't need you patronizingly tone policing me, especially publicly, especially on today of all days.
Not tone policing.
If you want to be angry, it's understandable.
That said, you're far from the only friend I have who is a public person and has recently gone from a bit angry to exploding. I'd rather none of my friends did that, & was just flagging it, as noted.
You didn't flag it. You expliciting WARNED him, as if you were somehow his superior. You definitely tone policed him, too.
And if you don't understand why he would be very angry, that's on you. Did he not know his place well enough for you, Tone Police?
