Someone here asked if anyone has thought of canvassing the hutterites to sign the petition for the separation referendum and questioned whether they would even be aware of it. So I asked my niece who works in the ag industry and has lots of dealings with them if they have smart phones. She said most do, but some only have a telephone. And typically, none of them vote in elections.
More from Grok:
Hutterites do not shun modern technology, but may limit some uses of it. Many attempt to remove themselves from the outside world (television sets – and in some cases the internet – are banned), and up until recently, many of the Lehrerleut and Dariusleut (Alberta) colonies still had only one central telephone. The Schmiedeleut, however, made this transition earlier, where each household had a phone along with a central telephone for the colony business operation. In many colonies, telephones are tied into the sort of commercial private branch exchange (PBX) systems more commonly used by businesses, with which toll restriction features could easily be programmed.
Today, Hutterites widely use telephones for both business and social purposes. Cell phones are also very common among all three groups today. Text messaging has made cell phones particularly useful for Hutterian young people wishing to keep in touch with their peers. Some Hutterite homes have computers and radios; and some (mostly liberal Schmiedeleut colonies) have Internet access. Farming equipment technology generally matches or exceeds that of non-Hutterite farmers. Lehrerleut colonies have recently struggled with the proliferation of computers and have clamped down, so that computers are no longer allowed in households and their use is limited to only business and farming operations, including animal, feed and crop management. As the world evolves more, however, and technology is used more and more for work and communication, many Hutterite young people use computers, photos, and the internet for keeping in contact with their friends and relatives and meeting new people outside the colony.

Remember when they told us eggs were not good for our health? This was a pamphlet at a doctor’s office! 🤣 (glad I never believed them!)
I'm in the same place as Marty, I've had it with all this non-natural ideology.
No, we are not God, we can not turn boys into girls, so people have to stop thinking that we can, it's insanity.
I think that we all have to realize that we exist in a world where 50% of the people are brain washed.
Marty rants for ten minutes, it's ten minutes of common sense.
I'm just going to say what most of you believe, but are afraid to say out loud.
We've allowed radicals to infiltrate all our institutions in this country, and take us down a path that isn't working.
We need to regain control.
I'm pissed right now, but I'm also more motivated than ever to make a change.
