Comedy sketch from Europe. This has been out for years but whenever I stumble on it it makes me chuckle.
If you're unfamiliar with the term, "baddies" is used in the UK to refer to the bad guys in a show or movie.

My phone doesn't let me click on a link for some reason, but is that the Mitchell and Webb comedy sketch where they play two Nazi officers? That one's a crackup.
Yes it is the Mitchell and Webb Nazi SS sketch.
The site does have links disabled. Does your phone block you from copy and paste? I think I remember you saying it does. That was part of the reason I included the tiny url.

Yeah, it's a Motorola, which uses the Crippled Android operating system. I keep discovering things it won't do. The phone was free, but I paid too much for it.
"Are we the baddies?" is something I've been asking myself lately.
When your keypoard is open, is there a "button" with a symbol that kinda looks like four squares? Maybe on the top row?

Yeah, but all that does is allow certain functions like taking a photo of the page in question or adjusting the gestures and such. There isn't any way to get it to recognize a link and copy it or click on it. For that matter, there's no way to simply copy a portion, or the entirety, of any post in the LVA blue boxes. And yes, that function is a normal part of Android. But not on this misbegotten sorry excuse for a phone.
It's OK, I've developed workarounds for most of the 137 things I've discovered so far that it won't do. And at least I know to never buy, use or even touch anything else made by Motorola. When this piece of crap finally dies, I'll buy a real phone--Samsung Galaxy or something like that.
When you tap and hold text within a post what happens? Does it become highlighted?
Also try this settings>apps>Gboard>clear cache.
If you don't see "gboard" you may need to tap something that reads "show all" or "show system".

Nothing happens. I have researched this and found out that something SHOULD happen. But did I mention that my phone is crippled?

Aha!!! That worked! My Stupidphone has now graduated from a 1 to a 2 on the Usefulness Scale! Thank you for your advice!
