Call me crazy, but I have this weird theory that maybe some of these spam calls could be a form of subtle psi-ops, in the vein of "hypernormalization", designed to exacerbate political prejudices.
Think of "stochastic resonance".
Its one of the few reasons I could think of for "blank" robo calls. They seem almost intentionally annoying, so my thought is that they could be designed to activate and prime irrational regional biases.
For example, someone has been spoofing my number to call people in Alabama. I get about 5 calls back per day from 251 numbers!

Telephone spammer software dials a load of numbers, and when someone picks up, only then do they connect the call to a human on their end. It's why you often get a weird pause before they actually say anything, and if there happens not to be a human available you get a "blank" call.
