    “America’s only Christian conservative wireless provider and our mission is to passionately defend our God-given Constitutional rights and freedoms while glorifying God.”

    How are they making this mission? Do they block sites? Or it’s just a way to scam people with shitty services and high price? Both?

    We have something similar here, they just scam but not block

      Just like their name, it’s just a slogan. They wrap themselves in flags and bibles and folks fall for it every time.

      God-given Constitutional rights and freedoms

      They’re trying to co-opt the US Constitution as a religious text.

        I don’t agree with these religious nuts but, in this case, I don’t think they’re completely off base regarding “God given rights”. The Declaration of Independence (not the Constitution) says:

        We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

        I wish the Declaration didn’t include “by their Creator” but it does.

      It’s just buzz words for morons so they buy their product. It literally means nothing at all.

      There’s a whole branch of capitalism dedicated to selling inferior products at terrible prices to conservatives who are terrified of wokeness.

      Because religious conservatives are the easiest people to grift. Slap the word god or Jesus on something and they’ll flock to it.

      Just look at their description.  “America’s only Christian conservative wireless provider and our mission is to passionately defend our God-given Constitutional rights and freedoms while glorifying God.”

      Cell phone providers and cell service has literally nothing to do with religion or defending rights and freedoms yet they throw that shit in because Christian conservatives are morons and it will get them to buy.

      Chances are the creator of the company isn’t even religious at all.

        Fuck me conservatives are so… I wanna say dumb but that just doesn’t quite hit the mark, hmmmm how about “brother fucking sister stupid” yeah that works

        If a left wing cell carrier tried to enter the market everyone would be like…tf? No. But conservatives are another breed and by that I mean inbred

        The biggest irony is, even as PM claims that none of their money goes to “woke”, PM is a MVNO, which means it merely resells services from a “woke” big mobile company (I think it’s T-Mobile in this case). So indirectly PM funnels money to T-Mobile, which then might donate some money to “woke” non-profits.

      Cause anyone and anything that is branded as a conservative and is selling a product/service will make a killing on money because of how delusional and dumb the average conservative is.

        Every once in awhile it crosses my mind that if I just gave up my morals I could make so much fucking money.

        The difference between me being a middle-class American and me being filthy fucking rich is every day I wake up and I choose not to defraud every single person I possibly can of their money.

        I feel like I should get a little thank you now and again, because I could be the greatest monster you’ve ever seen but instead I’m just a nobody and I don’t think I get nearly enough appreciation for my service.

          I see nothing wrong with defrauding conservatives. They’re gonna find some grifter to give their money to, so it may as well be you.

      You know how the Nazis wanted to publish The Lord of the Rings in Germany but had to write Tolkien first to ask if he was jewish? Or that they’re nuclear weapons program was slow because they had to make sure it was white guys who did the science?

      It’s that mentality.

      The funnier thing is, there aren’t any “Patriot Mobile” cell towers or data centers, basically they’re a racism-themed Cricket Mobile or TracFone, where they rent bandwidth from one of the big three (AT&T, Verizon or T-Mobile these days if I understand correctly) but they’re their own retail/customer service setup.
