This post was reported for being a news article not a shower thought. Also it seems like several of the comments are concerned that it is political.

There isn't a rule against posting a link. The article does seem relevant and OP's thought isn't taken from the article, it seems unique, like something you might think of in the shower after reading the article.

There isn't a rule against political posts. Many posts have some component of politics to them.

Thank you all for being civil with each other. Thank you all for commenting and reporting when think something is pushing the limits on what should be considered a "shower thought", it's an abstract concept, so social pressure is helpful in shaping the community. I try to error on the side of being permissive.

As always, I am open to feedback.

Edit: spelling, ironically

Truth Social seems to be a target-rich environment for people who are easy to con.

you don't say

Is this a shower thought?

He’s to politics what submarines are to aviation.

Sir this is showerthoughts

True

The misspellings are against spam filters

Would around 50% of Americans fall for an email scam?

I’ve tried multiple times to respond to these scam emails, I honestly don’t know what you have to say to get scammed. I’m totally ready to quickly go buy a temporary credit card from target or whatever

Honestly, these stories are sad. Half the reports even end with them holding out some hope that their money is still in some fake account (because they have screenshots!), or that the person that conned them was not the perpetrator.

That’s why I’m voting for Rachele Fruit!

those spam/scam emails[sic] with intentional misspellings

.... like 'emails'? Do your 'emails' have 'datas' in them?
