The panic begging texts have spiked this week.
Just one more donation bro. Just one more and we’ll fix democracy, I promise bro, just one more.
One of the biggest red flags that you might be getting conned is when they try to rush your decision. “It’s an emergency, your grandson is in jail and needs $500 to get bailed out, no you can’t hang up to call him, we need it now or he gets put in a cell with Rapist Bob.”
Not saying this is a scam, just saying the tactic feels predatory. Do better, dems.
I hate how everyone follows the social marketing playbook now. There’s so little community building and genuine connection with constituents. Everything is optimized by some social media marketing guru types with a masters degree in being an asshole.
It’s for sure a scam and nothing you said was wrong
US politics is fucking mental.
The grossest thing was the day Roe got over turned I got emails from 10 different Democrats looking for donations to help fight it.
The grossest thing is that’s pretty much all they did.
It pisses me off when they run some “get a free x” with donation that they alert me about just after i already donated for fucking bubkiss.
They do it very often too.
I can’t donate to them anymore after 2024. Like they had a billion dollars in donor money and they lost badly. I don’t even know WTF they used the money for.
I usually ignore these texts, but recently I couldn’t stop myself.
1,275 is such an odd number. I wonder why they did that one specifically

Responding to robots…
I know it’s most likely going into a void, but I’ve also worked in a call center that sent out automated texts. I wouldn’t bet on someone seeing the response, but I know it’s possible.
