I can’t even blame them.
I mean, how do you not fish that pool?
*phish
*ghoti
no i hate them
It’s all going to scammers anyway
Morals unfortunately.
The moral thing to do is disarm them of their money to stop it going towards Trump/etc.
Trump supports aren’t real people. Their sentience has been classified as below that of plants. Morals don’t apply.
I’m not going to say they’re not real or not sentient. But I will absolutely say that they are selfish. They lack the empathy required to understand how things will affect others. They lack the willingness to sacrifice for the greater good. They lack the humility required to understand that they could be wrong, and the critical reasoning required to change their views in the face of new evidence.
Almost every conservative I’ve ever met is either extremely rich or lives in microcosm. Hell, I’ve got extended family that have never travelled outside of their hometown and anything foreign or different to them is either ridiculed or shunned.
They want a social hierarchy, and they want their place in it preserved. God forbid people get equitable standing.
That goes for both…
Yup.
Why make it hard on yourself when idiots self-select into an easy target audience?
TBH I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re not being targeted at all but rather align perfectly with the real target audience: lonely, expendable income, low intelligence, low understanding of tech or finance, aging population.
You know how I know my maga relative lost everything he tried to “invest” in crypto? Because he suddenly STFU about it.
There was a while in 2019(I think) when all the office talk(software firm) was crypto then it just stopped it was glorious.
It didn’t stop, sadly. Everyone just started talking about AI instead.
It’s not the onion. But now the whole world is the Onion.
I can think of no better irony at this point than The Onion switching directions and becoming a real news outlet.
And future generations wokld look at their archived 80s/90s stories, and think they were real.
And thus the cycle begins anew.
That’s brilliant.
You know how once in a blue moon you look at news story that’s sounds completely crazy and go “huh”? Like when buzzfeed suddenly started using all their clickbait money to fund good, legitimate journamism?
This would be that.
Or like when all the news outlets were reporting that the Queen had died. AND EVERYBODY BELIEVED THEM!!!
She’s not dead. She’s still out there. Roaming the streets. Seeking justice among a seedy criminal underbelly, seeking personial closure for the deaths of her parents in an alley when she was a child.
…wait, I might be thinking of Ted Turner.
It’s a plus if trump’s supporters are scammed before he can fleece them, let the convicted felons well dry up while other scammers get rich.
Scammers usually try to target 🎯 gullible people like old people. Usually people who don’t understand what’s going on.
If you’re gonna type out target, why the emoji?
MAGA Supporters would be reading it 🤣
What a weird ❓ way to use emoji 😁
Yeah I don’t know why people do that.
I have had the misfortune of Mixing shows for Newsmax…that is literally their stick
Their shtick?
Well I wasn’t smart enough to say no to working for that god awful place briefly… I’m certainly not smart enough to spel gud
And donate to a left leaning charity? Chaotic good
Nah, just targeting the low hanging fruit in a get rich quick scheme. I’m not crying though.
The worlds tiniest violin, playing a medley of the worlds saddest songs.
stupid, dumb people, easier target. Who can blame the scammers? :D
Not sure whether “let them fight” or “spidermen pointing” meme is more appropriate
But see, the truly smart scammer would have a potentially decent coin and name it maga-coin. They’re looking for anything except government currency…the super scam, or is it?
Pretty sure there is a Maga coin already.
God. What a sad fucking rabbit hole I just went down.
Isn’t that what those supporters are there for? … to be scammed
It’s just different scammers now.
Is there really a difference if the money goes to crypto guys or some GOP PAC? They are both scammers from the word go.
And as scammers prefer to target the most gullible idiots, they already have a perfect target group for their “business” with the MAGA brains.
The money going to crypto guys has less negative impact and might even help some 3rd world north Koreans actually afford food. Any money going to the GOP only brings pain and suffering.
Either way it’s going to organized crime. At least the crypto scammers are unlikely to influence the election!
Ah, Big Stupid enabling the Scammer Class: a tale as old as time.
