I have, in the past, donated to various candidates and progressive/liberal political groups. As they say, no good deed goes unpunished and now I am the recipient of multiple daily scare/begging text messages. Beep, beep, beep, goes my phone way too many times a day from these guys.
Yes, I know that we're in a dire situation. But the frantic tone of these messages is really annoying--We're begging! My jaw hit the floor when I saw . . ., This is a hard thing to say. . ., Have you switched parties? We need your input for this to be complete . . . Important survey! Your voice is missing!
And the thing is, maybe they want my voice but what they really want is my money. Answer the survey and hit SUBMIT but nothing happens till you fill out the amount of your donation.
So I'm taking a hard line: texting STOP and blocking the number.
No doubt I'll still do some donating. But not to these pests.
