“Google Messages will note inline when something has been “Edited,” while the original message will be viewable by long-pressing the overflow menu > View details.”
If you know someone doesn’t read their messages right, you could fuck with them by sending responses unfiltered and filtered.
Example: “that’s a stupid idea” and editing it to “I’ll consider that”
Just know that they’ll see it, so only do with this with friendly trolling. Or just use it for typos. That’s probably safer.
This makes me think of the sunk cost fallacy. I figure they are so heavily invested at this point that they are doubling down. If they don’t have Trump to back their views, they might realize being a bigot isn’t cool.
