    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.

        This shit is so funny to me. The side of the political aisle that speaks entirely with memes and wears bright red hats to identify one another thinks the left is virtue signalling every time they step foot in public because of a rainbow pin or something.

        Kinda like how they won’t leave home without their guns, but accuse the left of “living life in fear” because we wore masks in public during the Pandemic.

        I think hypocrisy is an official party platform at this point.

      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.

      They’re not even a ‘carrier’, per se - just an MVNO reselling ATT and TMO. So a large chunk of the money goes back to the real carriers, i.e., the companies that conservatives are overpaying to avoid supporting.
