Verification Codes.

One-Time my ass, more like, repeated times. I’m so tired of verification codes up the ass these days. Just today, I had to reset my PayPal password. So that meant there was a code sent to an e-mail address after the reset process was set, to begin with. Then I had to go through the obstacle of verifying the information of the account. And then even after the password was reset, I’m sent ANOTHER freaking code right after!

And it’s even more frustrating to deal with, with my bank. I’ve gotten random verification checks for making internal transfers within my account. Things I’ve done without any issue. But just one day, I got THREE verification checks to do what I needed to do!

This verification shit has gotten out of hand! I want it to just die, just like captcha. Whatever purpose they originally were intended to do, is lost in translation, because now they’re just obstacles that wastes our time every minute we have to bother with them.

    Conservatism.

    Liberals and leftists discussing things would be much better. They’d discuss policy and how to implement it.

    We wouldn’t need to have “discussions” in the “marketplace of ideas” around murdering people, deporting people, removing healthcare, denying people’s existence, etc.

    Just because horse piss is a yellow liquid doesn’t mean it has to be stocked on shelves next to Gatorade.

      Seconded 100%.

      It holds us back so much. Definitionally archaic and exploitable.

      With it, organized divinity and faith-based religions, and in the void a universal rallying around humanism.

      Leftists would be too busy screaming FASCISTS! At any liberal. Once the liberals leave, leftists will fight over the definition of words until actual fascists show up and kill/enslave them. Half of the leftists will join forces with the fascists to hunt down the leftists whose definitions they don’t like.

        What do you mean by definition?! Sounds like you haven’t properly studied Kuwame Rosenthal’s Treatise of the Plebian in it’s original Portuguese. Try reading a book before having an opinion on words, you capitalist nazi!
