Some of the biggest pro-Bernie Sanders groups on Facebook were briefly taken down Monday evening in a targeted attack by Hillary Clinton supporters.

The groups Bernie Sanders Activists, Bernie Believers, BERNIE OR BUST, Bernie Sanders Revolutionaries, Bay Area for Bernie, Bernie Sanders 2016 — Ideas Welcome, Bernie Sanders is my HERO, and Bernie Sanders for President 2016 were all taken down in the attack.
.....................
Collectively, these groups are home to more than a quarter million Bernie Sanders supporters, and some have been in existence for nearly a year, having been launched shortly after the Vermont senator declared his intent to run for president in 2015.

The groups were targeted by online trolls, who posted pornographic images and reported the groups to Facebook admins. Some legitimate Bernie supporters even reported seeing images containing pedophilia, according to reporting from Heavy.com.

Erica Libenow, a Sanders supporter and member of one of the pro-Bernie groups, said, “We had what looked like a kiddie porn posted in one of our groups today. I reported that one. Seriously made me want to vomit.”

There is at least one culprit to be found in Facebook user Casey Champagne, who bragged about taking down the pages in the pro-Hillary Clinton group BROS 4 HILLARY – #GiveEmHill — though the pro-Clinton page has now also been taken down.

Who care? Honestly, saying that Sanders' online supporters don't matter while attacking these people would be simply hypocritical.

Some of it was probably posted by one of those wacko Bernie Bros. They only have themselves to blame if their FB groups get taken down.

Hey Shadows, if Bernie drops out tonight, will you leave the forum?

Apparently it was a facebook database bug.

Yep, and it affected other groups besides pro-Sanders groups, its just that the Sanders supporters freaked out the most when it happened.  90 minutes after they were taken down, they were back up.

Basically, this is nothing.

Not just curious, but also a request. If we're digging in to the realm of "wahh facebook wahh" then this campaign is over.

I motion for a compromise. If Sanders drops out tonight, Shadows leaves the forum. If Sanders doesn't drop out tonight, Lyin' Steve leaves the forum. Either way, everybody wins.

For someone whose only been here for less than a year, you sure want alot of long time members gone(Lyin Steve not being one of them but still).

Have you ever heard about a crazy conspiracy theory you didn't believe immediately?

IT. IS. NOT. ALWAYS. A. CONSPIRACY. AGAINST. YOUR. CANDIDATE.

Is there any other way I can try to hammer it into your head?

Haven't the Bernie people been (correctly!) telling us for ages now that the actions of some of his deranged online supporters did not reflect on all his supporters or the candidate himself? But now it suddenly does for Hillary? lol
