I wholeheartedly approve. It is the Government’s job to keep us safe from domestic threats. Those who subscribe to dangerous conspiracy theories and attempt to spread them must be identified. Tracking text messages is a great way to detect antivax propaganda as it spreads.
That is an unreasonable assumption - but I can see why you reach that conclusion when understanding of the reasons is limited to only what you assume. If you spend even a bit of time to explore the various reasons you will may see that your guessed ratio of idiots/valid is skewed in the other way.
I personally support all the major vaccines and think everyone should get them. They are as safe as the polio vaccine and just as effective, and nobody questions getting a polio vaccine.
BUT
Im appalled by the progressive left’s aggressive tactics to shut down anyone who would question vaccines developed under a legal immunity deal by some of the most unethical corporations in the history of America. Same with their muzzling of anyone who would question the virus’ origins.
Their newfound obsession with ideological purity is pushing me toward the center left, and I don’t think I can vote for progressive candidates anymore. For this reason, I think the DNC is headed for an absolute ass kicking (unfortunately) at the midterms.
I am not at all anti vax. You can say I want to wait a minute or I don’t think I need it because I got the disease already. That isn’t anti vax.
I believe in a right to privacy. It’s dangerous for everyone if a single group has that power. It could be volatile in either direction based on who is in power. We should all do our best to do our own due diligence and not fall victim to click bait and views.
I didn’t think it was clickbait either. I feel the same way OP! People go straight to attacking on this app too… feel free to DM if you need to vent
I mean doesn’t the NSA already monitor our texts and phone calls? I’ve named my silent monitor “Bob”
Eve, surely? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alice_and_Bob ;-)
Lol that Politico article has no evidence backing up there part about the SMS.
It wasn’t an ‘announcement’ by anyone. It’s a news article with no sourcing. Not even a source off the record or documents or anything.
There is money in outrage. This post was made to get people on the right to call the left crazy. And for people on the left to do the same. And it’s working lol.
It’s also scary the right wants to ban talking about racism. But this post wasn’t about politics in general becoming more controlling of speech; it was about a specific claim.
I genuinely have not heard of this. I'll have to Google it.
Oh this makes it much better since “it’s allied, private groups that are working with SMS carriers – not the White House"
Remember last year the lab theory was widely dismissed as conspiracy and constantly fact checked by big tech and news outlets. These independent “allies” lose their credibility when they are so brazenly the arbiters of truth.
