Bernie fucked me and sold my shit to the DNC, now I get several spam texts and voicemails every day. How do you stop this, cause it’s making me wanna do a luigi.
Actually how do I get these? It would be fun to mess with them
(If it’s even a person)
Sign up for a campagin email list or give 1 dollar to anything with NGPVAN or ACTBLUE. It will spread like a virus.
They’re robo, usually nobody on the other side. I know because I’ve yelled everything under the sun at them.
That’s a shame but I don’t know why I even expected anything different
Send them one of these
And if they reply, send them one of these
Love to do this wheb they force push photo message stories of how they were a good little CIA/
and now running to be a future board member of a weapons contractor…er “representative”.Always upbear PPB.
I usually just say FREE PALESTINE and they unsubscribe me pretty quick
I send them this pic then they say “I can’t receive images” then I say “you can’t do a lot of things”
Here in the UK we can be arrested (again) for saying that.
So care to explain your record?
Yeah I don’t like ethnofacist apartheid states and genocide.
least cringe anglophone country
What the fuck
That is an exaggeration. But Palestine Action is a proscribed group and it is illegal to show support for them.
I like to yeet my phone under a bed or a couch and let the battery run down and try to forget it exists for as long as possible.
everyone hates this but me.
The phone lists get circulated everywhere, so you will be blocking them forever. You can stop particular callers, but since they are mostly from volunteers using their own phones, you might get called from hundreds of different people. That said, here’s the U.S. rules:
During an election season, it is likely there will be an increase in calls and texts from political campaigns. While campaign calls and texts are exempt from the National Do Not Call Registry requirements, the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) contains specific rules they must follow.
In general, robocalls and robotexts to mobile phones require prior consent. Political robocalls to landlines are allowed without prior consent, but there are exceptions as detailed below. In addition, political robocalls made to residential landline phones without the prior consent of the called party are limited to no more than three calls within any consecutive 30-day period.
…
Political Robotexts
Robotexts – text messages generated through autodialing – are also considered a type of call and must comply with the same rules as robocalls.
Political text messages sent to a mobile phone using an autodialer require the called party’s prior express consent. Messages sent manually can be sent without prior consent.
If you are receiving texts that you didn’t ask for, report the sender by forwarding the texts to 7726 (or “SPAM”).
Campaigns should also honor opt-out requests if you reply “STOP.”
I find that stops the one candidate but not the three more I get the next day.
yup
Campaigns should also honor opt-out requests if you reply “STOP.”
For a party that
constantly about how they are just following orders, this seemingly doesn’t apply to them
Mine went down a lot after removing my phone number from my states voter registration. Definitely still get a few a cycle though
Oh shit does that work? I think I’m still registered to vote since the last time I did it, 2004.
Yea it’ll take a few cycles but they like up to date data so remove it from there, spend a year replying STOP to everything that comes through, and then hopefully just get 5-6 an election
