Related: About this forumMike Malloy - Hillary Clinton´s Plan To Attack Social Media Commenters
Citing lessons learned from online engagement with Bernie Bros, a pro-Hillary Clinton Super PAC is pledging to spend $1 million to push back against users on Twitter, Facebook, Reddit and Instagram.
Correct the Records Barrier Breakers project boasts in a press release that it has already addressed more than 5,000 people that have personally attacked Hillary Clinton on Twitter. The PAC released this on Thursday.
The PAC was created in May of last year when it was spun off from the American Bridge SuperPAC, which is run by longtime Hillary and Bill Clinton supporter David Brock. Brock also founded the left-wing media watchdog website Media Matters for America.
Some Bernie Sanders-supporting users on Reddit already started to notice the changes on Thursday afternoon.

OP
Calling it Hillary's plan is WRONG--and I see you inserted a link for donations to Mike the LIAR.

Just like RepubliCONS, Hillary gots a swarm of trolls to do her bidding.
