    If there’s an actual person texting you, tell them that you are actually two people sharing one phone, and that one of them only speaks lies, and one only tells the truth, and that the texter can ask one question to determine how you’re going to vote troll

      I ran through the formalizer for “more passionate” and I like it:

      Every time that notification pops up, my heart races with anticipation, longing for a name I recognize, someone who truly cares about connecting with me. But instead, I’m met with the same tired, frustrating message—a stranger, some liberal ranting about how they served in the military and love their country, pleading for help to take down the Republicans. It infuriates me! I can’t help but want to scream in anguish, wishing they could feel the weight of my disdain. It’s exhausting!

    I was wondering why I wasn’t getting any campaign texts and then I checked my spam and found this masterpiece:

    BodyBySisyphus, it’s Kamala Harris. I am turning to you because you are among my most dedicated supporters.

    Here’s the truth: The polls have tightened, the attack ads have intensified, and tonight marks the final end-of-month deadline of this election.

    I know it might seem like giving $5 or $50 with so little time left won’t make a difference, but we need you.

    Yada Yada yada give us your money

    I’m tickled by the implied self-own of calling me her most dedicated supporter

    The Bernie campaign’s greatest legacy appears to be “honeypot for the DNC”, because the Democrats aren’t even talking about healthcare reform or a green new deal now.
