with Black Friday being this Friday the 28th, this is the time to maximize the impact we can have via call campaigns
If you plan to participate in this call campaign, imo you should heavily prioritize calling Visa/MC as heavily as possible between the 27th and the 1st of dec

Spoke to my source familiar with internal workings at Mastercard. The holiday call campaign re payment processor censorship is working, there is a lot of pressure being felt from your calls. This is resulting in increased response times at a core moment for Mastercard due to the holiday season

Spoke with a source who told me the call volume is so high, a call center for both Mastercard & Visa is bringing out pizza and ice cream so agents don’t quite amid the rush. Long waits are causing dropped calls.

Guys, as a ex call center employee, this is fucking DESPERATION BEHAVIOR.
Pizza and ice cream once may be an entire year's planned discretionary budget for a team, they do NOT value them enough to provide common comfort. If their doing this? Their not just scared, their TERRIFIED.

The script to oppose KOSA (the Kids Online Safety Act) AKA The Big Bullshit Censorship Bill is now up on @5calls.org
We’ve already seen the results of this over the last few days in the U.K. with their Online Safety Act (OSA). Let’s make sure it dies off again. Call your reps ☎️

People with big egos and dangerous cognitive biases, that value what comes out of their own mouth more than actual facts, often do think they're right.
I call them idiots. It's sad, because a lot of these types are quite intelligent, they're just too full of themselves to see and do what's right.

13k comments on one tweet is a massive payout. All of the tweets follow a certain formula, so the content is likely automated using AI technology (e.g., AI generated images and text). Basically running it as a money printing machine. But for those in the US, it translates to low simmering rage.

Senators slipped a sneaky clause into the shutdown bill, letting them pocket up to $1 million for secret phone snooping—retroactive perks for the Jan. 6 crew, because why not enrich the elite while America waits. #Corruption

Do we really trust this regime to not do something to Mamdani? Trump is no different than Putin. Except he's using Jesus Christ for his evil. Closest thing to the Antichrist in the Bible. Not good! Remove Trump before more innocents die!

To all EU Citizens, please contact your local governors and make noise everywhere.
For it's blatant censorship and people could be falsely accused of crimes they did not do.
While also putting Queer and Trans Youth in ever more danger.
