I am happy being a deplorable “junk” person I guess.  Not given to conspiracy 
theories.  So sad to learn that I don’t have critical thinking skills.  Who 
knew?

It makes sense that people who believe lies and conspiracies are more likely to 
be scammed than people who have critical thinking skills. Truth Social is 
filled with junk posts by junk people so if I were a scammer, I'd focus all my 
time there too.

    We try to avoid discussing politics here, and yes, no good can come from 
that.



    But it was inevitable that technical and politics would intersect.  I 
didn’t expect to see it on Gizmodo though.



    If you have elderly relatives or friends who hang out on Truth Social, give 
them the usual public service announcement to watch out for scams.  Apparently 
Truth Social is viewed as a target rich environment for scammers.
