I am sure that we will see apologies.

And it would have taken several accomplices to generate the number of alerts.

where Chelsea sits on the board. Not to mention Zuckerberg is a Clinton supporter.

Just a glitch my ass.

and Chelsea's beast counts for nothing as far as I'm concerned

Involvement in a random glitch? Keep digging.

all within a short time span. . . I wonder what the odds would be on that happening all by itself . . . . . anyone called Vegas yet to find out?

Why do you hate democracy?

Do you think that is excusable? CHILD PORNOGRAPHY. I hope the trace it and the person goes to jail for the porn.

Random glitches also confess to doing it, to the facebook pages of a rival political candidate.

You really shouldnt make such a big deal out of a "random glitch"

All of my SF googler neighbors and friends are embarrassed that anyone would believe this was a Vast Clinton Conspiracy.

After all, if she can steal all these votes, blackmail almost all of congress to support her, control who all the newspapers endorse, and block out all opponent media coverage, the GE should be a cake walk.

They really want this Bernie conspiracy crap to stop. They're beginning to think he's not in control of his campaign. Child porn, my Aunt Fannie.


The largest Facebook group affected, the verified “The People for Bernie Sanders” account, put out this statement early on Tuesday.

“We're aware many of the pro Bernie groups were removed from Facebook. They're back. It was a Facebook database error, not a conspiracy or an attack. Stay calm, phonebank, or get to a field office to win Tuesday,” the group wrote.

Toward Facebook groups of Bernie Sanders and posted about it in the B4H Facebook group. As stated above, this was not promoted or supported by the leadership of B4H, nor were we immediately aware of this conduct. We removed the offending posts and member as soon as possible. While our leadership team of administrators tries to catch every questionable post and comment, with over 7,000 members and on a 24-hour posting cycle, some fall through the cracks. We rely on members to "flag and report" harmful, offensive, or trolling behavior, and apologize to the groups that were affected. This member acted on his own authority, is not apart of our leadership team, and does not represent our ideals or our opinions."

It covers the quote you cite and puts it in context. The facebook glitch was huge, not just Bernie groups.

I'm sure if there was no one deliberately spamming the sanders groups with porn to get them shut down, that truth will emerge.

wreaking havoc. paid for by Brock and tried to debunk using the Daily Beast. try again.

down were Bernie's and none were Hillary's. Your Aunt Fannie!

And then try to pretend this never happened.

He's a former member because they don't approve of this kind of behavior. Notice they didn't simply label him a Sanders campaign mole and blame the Sanders campaign for dirty tactics.

I suppose we could imagine that this is just some giant coincidence unrelated to the million dollars brock is spending on internet shenanigans, if "we" wanted to, couldn't we.

Certainly not facts.

Why is there a statement on the "bros4hillary" page?

It's disgusting. You should be out there disavowing the scumbag(s) who did it, and be calling for them to be prosecuted.

You're going to have to do better than that. Even HillBros had to release a statement about one of the shitbags involved.

Facebook has an automated system that shuts pages and users down when they've been overreported. The same thing happened last week to Election Justice USA in regards to over reporting.

where people were sorting out voting sites, helping people get there, etc. Just yet another strange coincidence.

I read almost 400,000 members affected in those groups listed alone, let alone all those whose feeds they would have appeared on.

Dirty, dirty, dirty.

i just thought we were making a lot of jobs for the immigrants...
...sure took a lot of employees....those trains ran night and day..."

they don't know anything, but what they DO know, is that if they know anything it was an accident, a one-off aberration, nothing to do with them...

It was all a glitch. Just a glitch. Never happened.
There are five lights.

hmmmmm

daughter.

1) It didn't just affect FB Bernie groups--the Photobucket pics in my signature also disappeared briefly, for example; and 2) if the pages were shut down for porn, there would have been some kind of a process, and the mods at least would have been notified.

were logging multiple complaints including Bernie supporters.

The images posted were vile and disgusting.

It was obviously a glitch and the conspiracy theories sound like a Borowitz column gone viral.

When a page receives a glut of complaints, it is shut down pending investigation.

Some of the images were so disgusting and they were being posted so quickly that the hosts could not pull them down fast enough, and also lodged complaints with Facebook..

That is; hosts of Bernie groups had to be complicit in shutting down there own sites because they could not keep up with deleting vile disgusting images... some images appeared to include child porn.

Like DU does from time to time, except the admins here step up and put out explanations instead of hiding behind preposterous conspiracy theories.

I am sure glad I don't have to defend child porn for Bernie. I wonder how people get to the point in their lives where they are defending child porn? Sad day.

Ergo, it must be true.

and there have been a surprising number of overseas Trollz 4 Bernie, many of whom operate through sham Facebook accounts.
(There's also been some foreign virtual phonebanking that seems to go beyond Americans abroad.)

I wonder how many of these "activists" have generated multiple $27 donations. Weren't there questions a few weeks ago about foreign money coming into the Sanders campaign?

This kind of stuff never fools anyone. Hopefully the miscreants will get caught.

Oh wait, they don't.

According to Aiden King, the digital and social media manager for Sanders' campaign, the groups' closures was the result of a bug that affected many Facebook groups, not just pro-Bernie Sanders groups.

"All of the groups are back up and it wasn't just Bernie groups," King shared on the ConnectWithBernie slackchat. "Facebook hasn't released a public statement but they had a bug and it closed a ton of Facebook groups. Our supporters are just more vocal so the internet blew up with 'Bernie groups being shut down' rather than 'Facebook groups are being shut down."
