Oh signal is for sure going to be targeted soon, “they are doing illegal things on it, must be banned” = can’t have the proletariat be talking to each other in a way we can’t monitor.

My sister has already spouted off on how the pedos and terrorists are using Signal after mom tried getting the family moved over to it.

I pointed out, well if encryption is the concern, isn't that a glowing review of the app?

She didn't like that. 💀😂 She then brought up how bad Discord is too.

Did you know that pedophiles and terrorists breathe oxygen!!! Oxygen is just air for criminals! Boycott oxygen!

The same holds true of dihydrogenmonoxide. It has been found in both terrorists' and pedophiles' systems. A chemical analysis by British scientists has even found large quantities of dihydrogenmonoxide in babys' food! We need a ban NOW! DOWN WITH DIHYDROGENMONOXIDE!

And let's not forget hydrocarbons! Hydrocarbons are literally the foundation that pedos and terrorists are built on! The government needs to take ACTION and destroy all hydrocarbons, for the Greater Good!
