Just wondering if this has been happening to anyone else.
I have recently gotten 2 texts from Republicans that I have typed stop and while normally when I request stop I get a choice if delete or delete and report junk. On one I got no message that it was stopped and on the other report junk was not an option. Last week I got text from a Republican and did as another poster suggested responding with an expletive and was told I was removed. I will admit it made me smile.
If the repubs think they are being cute or intimidating, they are not. Ignoring someone saying no or stop is pretty on brand for them.

(6,925 posts)I replied STOP to the first one, but then I got the second one, so I replied that I wouldn't piss on him if he were on fire. They seem to have stopped after that. We'll see.

I then sometimes add that each text from a Republican I get, I give money to her campaign or sometimes to SOCs campaign or whoever is their terror du jour. most of the times I get a message saying Im unsubscribed.
On my eye phone, sometimes I can delete. And sometimes I can delete and report junk. Not sure why, theres no pattern
