I will donate $100.00 * to Democratic Underground if the allegations in this article can be verified
Good afternoon. As of today, I am officially a former "digital media specialist" (a nice way to say "paid Internet troll") previously employed by Hillary Clinton's campaign (through a PR firm). I'm posting here today as a confession of sorts because I can no longer continue to participate in something that has become morally-indigestible for me.
<skip>
The real problem for me started around the end of September and the beginning of October, when there was a change of direction from the team leader again. Apparently, the higher-ups in the firm caught wind of an impending spending splurge by the Clinton campaign that month and wanted to put up an impressive display. We received very specific instructions about how and what to post, and I was aghast at what I saw. It was a complete change in tone and approach, and it was extremely nasty in character. We changed from advocates to hatchet men, and it left a very bad taste in my mouth.
Just to give you an idea, here are some of the guidelines for our posting in October:
1) Sexism. This was the biggest one we were supposed to push. We had to smear Bernie as misogynistic and out-of-touch with modern sensibilities. He was to be characterized as "an old white male relic that believed women enjoyed being gang raped". Anyone who tried to object to this characterization would be repeatedly slammed as sexist until they went away or people lost interest.

9. I will raise the donation to $150.00 to make it more interesting.
That is probably more than I have spent on clothes in the past three months.

13. Haven't filed a tax return since 09.
I earned $324.00 last year. Due to my scintillating personality and empathetic nature I have benefactors though I do not take advantage of them.
Yea you do. If "I" knew you were taking "my" money to give away, I personally, if it were me, kick you a*s to the curb.

16. I lost my home, my car, my savings, my business, and my investments in the Great Recession.
EOM
Bush's fault

18. I still have my girlfriend and she's gainfully employed.
However, when her unemployment ran out we would have literally been homeless if not for a friend letting us move into his spare bedroom.
Either it was serendipity or God and I believe it was the latter that allowed us to move back from Orlando to L A. Out of the blue I received a check from State Farm for around $2,800.00 which was money held in escrow for the insurance on my foreclosed home...We took the money and moved to L A where she is from...Our friends thought we were crazy to move across the country with no job prospects. Well, we didn't have job prospects in Orlando either...
My gf is super smart and hard working. She's leaving to go to the office today (Saturday) as we speak....She found an accounting job within weeks of moving to L A but we didn't have enough money to put down a security deposit. For the first year in L A we were doing the airbnb and Priceline bidding thing..In about ten months we lived in Canoga Park, Koreatown, Glendale, Alhambra, Los Feliz, Burbank, and Van Nuys...
Coming from the burbs of Central Florida to L A was a culture shock at first.
It could be worse...We live in a 450 square foot rent controlled studio apartment but since we don't have a car the proximity to the bus line which leads to everywhere in L A makes it awesome...
I was never part of the 1% but I was probably part of the 15% ...Money is just an encumbrance.
TY for your empathy.
So, you're sucking at your girlfriends teat (probably literally), and sucking the teat of your benefactor. A two-fer for a DUmmie. You should be proud.
And the thread winner:

44. The success of that thread sends all sorts of shudders down my spine.
I thought we were a reality-based community here. (HAHAHAHA - You made a funny). We're supposed to demand evidence, and not believe things just because we want them to be true. (You crack me up. This is the same place that jumps on any Republican when a rumor comes out. The ones that believe a proven lie (Politico). The ones that denegrate BC simply because he's conservative). That's what the GOP does with evolution, and climate change, and tax cuts, and Barack Obama's birthplace, etc.
Yet here we have 200+ people deciding to believe the worst about the Democratic (And Republican) frontrunner just because it's convenient to their preconceived opinions, (You describe DU perfectly) based on nothing but a hard-to-believe, unsourced, Internet post with no evidence at all. None. Zero. We don't have the person's name. Not the name of the firm this person allegedly worked for. (But a proven lie by politico is taken as hard truth. Seriousness of the charge and all that). Any posts this person supposedly made. Any explanation why nobody else has come forward as well.
I'm trying to process whether this forum can have much value if a thread like that gets so much traction. Are we any better than the people who are sure that Vince Foster was murdered, and went so far as to blow away a few watermelons to try and prove it? (Ummm, the bullet in the "suicide" was never found. Forgive me for believing Vince was blown away intentionally then dumped at the park).
Liberals disgust me.

This DU OP's CHILL-hating :bouncy: is the same :bouncy: that is the subject of the DU OP in frank's thread, here (http://conservativecave.com/index.php?topic=105107.msg1318098#msg1318098). Is that sentence intelligible?
Anyway, it looks like Libs and Progs are turning dirty-trick :bouncy: s against each other, :popcorn: :lmao: and this is a trend that should be fervently encouraged. :lmao: :popcorn:

Ah! Does this bring us another piece to the bravenak puzzle? Is she also a "digital media specialist" and when she was on time-out did she need something that would continue to disrupt the bernie-bots while she could not post?
Her employer would know her address...
Sure, it's all leaps o' logic and speculation but it does make me go 'hmmm?'

Love PGR's sig line.
It covers a wealth of disgust for lib indiscretions.

It's been exceptionally valuable for over a decade of laughs for conservatives observing just how stupid liberals are. I don't expect you to process and reach that same conclusion, but that's what makes it even more funny.

Has $kinner memory holed this thread yet? It is not in his best interest to leave it up and there is a real possibilty of losing some Clinton cash should her campaign stumble across it.
