    I want to troll these spammers so badly but I’m terrified that if I reply I’ll validate my number being real which would probably result in more spam

      More spam is coming anyways.

      I was completely shocked when I migrated to an iPhone 16 that I had a ton of unread spam texts. Android had been filtering them and I wasn’t even aware it was happening. Apparently iOS has no such feature. The best you can do is block numbers that aren’t in your contact list, which obviously isn’t a solution if you have any sort of life at all. But what I’m getting at is that if you switch to Android then you won’t even see any spam texts. I dumped the iPhone after a week and went back to my Pixel.

    Anyway it’s been years I thought I was going to die of acute autism by now. They were all going around saying that everyone who took the vaccine was going to be dead within a year.

      No no. You misunderstood. It’s a year from today! What a coincidence that I just happened to see your lack of faith exactly one year before it happens. After trump takes over and installs Elon Musk as head of the department of defense, he’ll activate the software update for the covid virus nanobots using military satellites that transmit 5G. The 5g nanobots will then force you to buy Microsoft products. This solidifies the Bill Gates’ control over the flat world, and the final signs will begin manifesting.

      Don’t worry a lot of them think tons of people have died from it. I’ve had some antivaxxers tell me they know a bunch of people personally who have died from the vaccine and are worried about me dying…these people are delusional, and will carry on the lies they’ve been fed no matter what. They’re like the people who believe the end of the world prophecies, and when the date comes and goes, they just latch onto the next one or believe the reasons provided why it didn’t happen.

        The person you were replying to was most likely being sarcastic, but thanks for taking the time to reassure them anyway!

    I suppose one shouldn’t bother to explain to them that the vaccine’s materials and the body’s immune response diminish over time, or that your body continuously recycles and replaces parts including blood
