That's putting it mildly... It's worse than their whole conspiracytard shtick.
The weird grammar and punctuation is usually part of the shtick.
Feels like I'm receiving the facebook post via morse code.
seems like they have double space to period and capitalizing the first letter of a sentence turned on, and they put two spaces between words
I would have a lot more confidence if they had already found. the. guide. before. listing. the. plate. for. sale.
And it's even for sale and you get 35% discount on other stuff you won't actually need.
By Grabthar's hammer... what a savings.
Selling these things seems like a solid business move.
Bundle all their spells and bind them in a book. Then sell the definitive guide to sovcits.
Hell, I'm a writer, I'm going to make a 80% AI generated ebook under a dumb pen name and sell it to them on Amazon.
But I am not sure it is worth my sanity. It might be too much work to investigate and then do propaganda on the sovcit facebook groups.
Normally these posts don't have enough punctuation. Now there's one with too much. Not sure which I prefer.
now we're caught up
As someone who thought engineering was in his future a long time ago... I prefer less as I understand the whole punctuation thing poorly. I love commas though!
Stop. It. !!!
No. I. Won't.
Discount is based on competitors value. Lol, so no real discount, and probably no actual competitor to even price check against.
Compared to ten hundred bajillion shekels its a steal
What is the rate of shekels to Stanley nickels?
The same as the ratio of unicorns to leprechauns.
Now I really want to start a business selling this stuff. I wonder if there are disclaimers on the site just in case someone tries to sue for it not working. Or are these people so convinced that it's all on the government that sueing someone selling this stuff wouldn't cross their minds?
I get the feeling, but for real, please don't feed that mentality :( We don't need more
They get suckered all the time.
Well they have the "don't answer questions" thing correct.
Oddly enough that seems to be the thing sovcits love doing.
Ohh so that’s how they grift.
Is it bad if I kinda want these? Obviously wouldn't put them on my car, but I think it would be funny to hang them up somewhere in my home. You know like those people who hang up old license plates around their home, garage, or business? Just put these fake ones up there either with or as standalones
No! You can buy them on Amazon.
Aww man, is William Shatner a sovciv?!
I personally know someone who writes like this. Messages, blog posts, emails, sms, anything. I see their message, mark as read, and move on. I simply can't. My brain cannot comprehend this grammar (or, rather, lack thereof). Instead of consistently getting pissed at this person, I just don't read what they have to say. If it's truly important, they'll tell me in person the next time we meet. Otherwise, it's fodder in a seemingly endless maelstrom of random letters.
It's well explained and purchasable, it has to be legit! 🫨
