And they say Russia made me vote for Trump
« on: January 23, 2020, 01:52:56 PM »
Never got a text or call to vote for trump. All ads seen on social media were all anti trump and pro bernie or clinton. Even to this day. All pro warren, bernie, and yang.

Then i get this text.

Lucky I refuse to own an iFag phone.  My simple little cell just makes and receives infrequent call.

That text could have been sent in 2016.

And it would have been more apropos, too.

Not saying that not owning or using modern technology is good or bad, but I will comment that it is the now of how people get all their information, whether the information is true or not.

That is why I often post on social media platforms.  It is important for alternative points of view be heard and conveyed, other wise all is going to be lost.

That is how the younger generation communicate. 

Trump won 2016 because of Twitter.

We need every pro 2a comment to be seen. I have noticed the huge 180 for the past year or so, going from anti 2a to pro 2a in comments.

Every comment helps.

I received that same message today, only it was from Andrew to Kevin.  Blocked the number, reported it to AT&T as SPAM and deleted the text.

Wife has one of those and I have no idea what to do with all those cute, colorful little chicklets on the screen.  Seem to be made for those that like to point at everything.

She showed me once how to use it as a regular phone, and my eyes glazed over at all the finger jiggery-pokery involved.

She is always charging the damn thing as well, not real useful.

I responded "nope" to the text and actually had someone ask me who I supported. Ended up having an interesting short little conversation with the person.
