Leonardo DiCaprio pointing at a tv

But at least she is broadcasting it!

Whoooops.

It's a very complex issue you see. We just don't understand what's going on. Best leave it to the experts.

Man. I saw that little blip on the radar and thought "well, that would be the first decent thing the entire administration has done, so hurray I guess.?" And I moved on.

Jokes on me!

No representative of the Canadian government nor anyone running for such a position should even be permitted to post on X, given the hostile foreign ownership. I'll let smarter people than me make the same argument for Facebook ect.

The amount of manipulation that is available to X and Facebook makes it bonkers that any official government message is ever delivered on it.

Can you imagine 100 years ago being Canada and having Japan or Germany print your newspapers and deliver them to your people for you?

"I said something false, someone else can read and called me on it. They are stoopid."

Hey yeah, that was fun. Thanks!

So by those people, you meant those people's families. Which means not them. And also probably not their families. Perhaps the 42% of Cubans who didn't vote for Trump are the Cubans whose families are being deported.

Give peas a chance!

To what end? I read most of the article but I can't understand the goals of these fakers?

I didn't realise the 530,000 Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans and Venezuelans temporary legal status gave them the right to vote?

Explain this?

I tried. Sent what I thought was a pretty sincere message. Though I did say I was from Toronto as a way to connect, but I suppose a good scammer wouldn't want me close enough to ask for a meetup. Live and learn.

Hey, thanks! It's easy to assume it's some bot posting garbage these days, harder to be respectful and just ask for a better source.

I salute your efforts.

What in the hell garbage website is this?

Spoooooky

Are the consequences in the room with us now?

Amen.

Just depends on how it hits. I got a random message like

"It was great seeing you Sally, we should catch up like that more often."

My name isn't Sally. But my mom's is. And my mom is at an age where sometimes I get a TXT via email, if you get me. And she complains about her friend not understanding tech...And this friend was visiting from out of town for the first time in years, one who I had told mom to give my number too in case they needed assistance while visiting.

So I said "Hey, Maureen, this is Sue, you must have pressed the wrong button. I'm sure Mom agrees! How was the restaurant? I've been meaning to try it."

Now... That was not smart. I gave actually checks and changes real name to Sue my real name, my mom's and a well known restaurant name. If the scammer had have been smart, there's a million things they could have done with that to trick me, either immediately or by waiting awhile and then acting.

But they were on their pig butchering script, so their next TXT was clunky, and was like "oh! No this is Ally, I must have gotten the wrong number! Silly me."

And I was like. "Oh ok. No problem, glad you got to catch up with your friend then!"

And then like 2 hours later they txtd "is that restaurant in city? I've always wanted to visit."

And I didn't reply.

And the next was a hilarious cut and paste from the wiki of the city like "it has 1.9 million people and an economy of 59million annually! How cool!" Do you live there?"

By then I had figured it out.

But they do this all the time, there are alot of them, and it doesn't take much luck for your guard to go down...

We all hate this guy, don't get me wrong, but making disgusting claims like that just lowers us to their level.

You can be a pedophile without being an HOA president.
