I've done it too, but I don't think any campaign I've done it for has asked friends and family to snitch on each other.
Oh I know, but asking friends and family about you just feels like a step over the line to me.
No one is arguing the legality of it, the point is that it's straight creepy.
It's also the lack of choice in this. I choose to use Google and Facebook, I sign up for a union knowning they'll give my information out, this is someone giving out information on me without asking if it's ok.
If any other candidate was doing this no one would bat an eye. There is nothing creepy about it, it's just how moderns campaigns are run.
If you're signing up for a union you're likely giving the union permission to give out your info to campaigns
I mean, if you're predisposed to dislike sanders and don't know how campaigns work, then yes, I can understand why you think it's creepy.
Maybe reread the comment I was responding to? It's pretty obvious by their tone
The information they're asking for isn't personal, is the thing. They're asking for info that a campaign volunteer/staffer would ask for, which I guess is getting matched to your voter file.
That's what I said. If I sign up for a union I do so knowing they'll give my information out. I'm saying I never gave my family and friends permission to hand out my information like this.
Thank you. Trying to paint it as a Bernie vendetta is ridiculous and straight up paranoid.
Then it's likely they won't do it right? Which means you're clear.
I really don't think this is as true as it used to be. dude was sharp but he seemed like a fucking mess on The View.
If a person considers any of this privileged information and values the privacy of it don't tell Bernie supporters anything about it if you don't want to unknowingly give that information to the Sanders' campaign.It's a website, not a downloadable app. I took a screenshot of desktop version here:
If you are registered to vote, that information is already publicly available. The app simply links that information to their database, with the supplemental info about who you support and who added you. There are no blasts sent because there is no email provided. Without this tool, the campaign could've found you anyway if you're a registered voter.
Did I say she was? Clearly the connection is the cadence and use of repition to drive home a point. Basic rhetorical stuff.
Sure, if you want to stand by that comparison, knock yourself out. LMAO.
And continue to ignore the question about attending a black church. I guess I should spell it out for you:
If asking who someone is voting for is over the line then so is every campaign with a canvass ever.
Oh right, criticism of Turner acting like a creepy cult leader is because she's a woman 🙄Is this kind of like how any criticism of Buttigieg is because he's a gay man and it's homophobia that's fueling it?
I didn't answer because it's a silly question that has nothing to do with the situation. Turner using chanting and repetition in this context reads as cult-y, sorry.
🤔
It has everything to do with the situation. Changing and repetition isn't cultural, it's an extremely basic rhetorical device that everyone uses. You're just having another "eating crackers" moment.
Exactly correct.
Not really. Weirder has it right.
Asking for other people's information is not normal in the slightest. It's straight out of MLM playbooks, where they ask you to sell to people close to you.
Cults are extremist religions. Religiosity directed towards a candidate is not normal in the slightest and it's absolutely the right word to describe it.
