Unskippable ad I keep getting threatening texts

I get these ALL the time. I’ve never donated to these “people.” Never supported them. Never voted for them. Nor has my wife. I received four of these today. All threats. Always a telling me it’s my last chance. These are some of the less malicious-sounding ones.

I’m not even sure they’re legitimately from those parties, though I wouldn’t put it past them.

So… report as spam. Report as spam. Report as spam.

It isn’t like it’s painful. Just pretty irritating.

I'm not saying this is the BEST way to deal with them by any stretch of the imagination, but I tend to reply to them with an image of something that would probably be widely considered very uncomfortable content. Something like a drawing of a very weirdly drawn female enderman or creeper from minecraft, or some classic "seduce the dragon" shenanigans.

" a drawing of a very weirdly drawn female enderman"

When you said an uncomfortable image, I wasn't sure where you were going with that. I certainly didn't anticipate lady enderman.

Up to you if you want to go full rule (you know the number) on it

You know, the whole point of that rule is that it's supposed to be comprehensive, but damn, I did not have horny Enderman on my bingo card.
