In reply to the discussion: FYI: The Hillbots are going to get worse... David Brock has announced a new strategy [View all]Donkees
(33,724 posts)40. Excerpt:
Anonymous online attacks, from both sides of the political spectrum, have sought to spread lies and misleading narratives about Secretary Hillary Clinton. Hillarys supporters are more enthusiastic than Sen. Bernie Sanders supporters, yet oftentimes are discouraged from engaging online and are often afraid to voice their thoughts because of the fear of online harassment. Many of Hillary Clintons female supporters in particular have been subject to intense cyber-bullying and sexist attacks from swarms of anonymous attackers.
Among the many Hillary Clinton supporters attacked online, superdelegates have been subject to vicious attacks for supporting her. Even the director of MoveOn, which has endorsed Sen. Sanders, denounced this harassment.
In response to these attacks on supporters and superdelegates, Correct The Record is launching the Barrier Breakers 2016 digital task force. While Hillary Clinton fights to break down barriers and bring America together, the Barrier Breakers 2016 digital task force will serve as a resource for supporters looking for positive content and push-back to share with their online progressive communities, as well as thanking prominent supporters and committed superdelegates on social media.
