It all comes from Arizona. Ive never been to Arizona. My phone number isnt anywhere near Arizona. One year, I replied STOP to every text. Nothing stopped. Now I just cuss them out and block them, but it still persists. I wrote an email to the Arizona Republican’s main office and demanded my number be removed from thier canvassing. Crickets. More spam. 3 today alone. I am so tired of this shit. It doesnt help that I think conservatives are pieces of shit and I am a member of a marginalized community that they are targeting with hate and discriminative laws.

    Stop infecting every single Lemmy community with freaking politics. There’s nothing good in it.

    Speaking of your question, it looks like there’s a bad actor. Spamming isn’t something a serious political organization would do. I think you should change your phone number.

      They already said it’s from conservatives, no need to be redundant.

        It can be from their fans, competitors or anyone trying to discredit them. Anything is possible. But if it’s really from conservatives, it’s a very stupid strategy.

      lol, change your phone number because of one group abusing it. “Just subject yourself to this massive hassle.”

        You have any other ideas on how to stop the spam? Then just tell them. No need to stupidly fight

        Because the user wants help on how to stop the spam. You toxic people won’t understand that. I argued about the inclusion of politics because it’s not allowed in this community and if everyone breaks the rule, it will stop working and the community will turn into a political junkyard.

        If answering the user’s question isn’t called for nowadays, I think we need to completely rebuild English so the words mean what they’re supposed to mean.
