    If people are using these types of tactics to try and make people in one political party not vote, I’d say it’s more than fair for the same tactics to be used on the other party.

    Is it ethical? Absolutely not.

    Do I care? No because if I were to ever get messages/calls telling me not to vote, I’d laugh and vote anyways since I live in an area with mail in ballots.

      Be careful, cycle of abuse is a thing. If we normalize this then it wont be long till it gets worse.

      A better first step would be to educate people with skepticism so they understand that the president calling personally to ask people not to vote cant be right.

      Another idea that could help is incorporating nft blockchain in official verifiable footage,quotes,stances, linked whenever referenced so the unaltered context can easily be sourced and non verifiable footage treated with skepticism.

      Yeah…I mean, if you cloned Trump’s voice? And actually made it interact with the people? You could suppress the fascist vote by about 75%

      I have to tell you that I’ve been compelled to listen to the Tiny Toon Adventures theme song on Spotify, because your username has been stuck in my head all evening.
