    Yah if you gave $18 to Bernie or what have you, you consented for the DNC to reach out to ya through their various apparatus apparently until the end of time.

      Well then I’m glad I’ll be ditching that number soon because that’s fucking nuts. I don’t even remember if I gave him money in 2020 and I don’t think I did. I did in 2016, so WTF?

      The worst part of it was Bernie swore he wasnt giving his lists to the DNC

  They sold the email list too. I gave an alias email address specifically setup for a Bernie donation. They all use that email address now.

  Maybe people should be using Google Voice numbers, just in case they pull this shit.
