To break the Internet means to go so viral that it trends, causes slow downs (like Act Blue after Bernie won New Hampshire) and generally gets seen by anyone who happens to be on the Net at that time.

In this case, it's just a show of solidarity for Bernie and that we haven't abandoned him after one loss in in a conservative state that will never go Blue in the general election, anyway.
