I'm getting spammed from individuals in the Hillary campaign

[undeterred]

This morning I had 4 identical emails in my inbox from someone identified only as a Hillary supporter. They were inviting me to an event in Burbank, CA - I live in WI. How does a member of a campaign get to email their entire database 4 times? I signed up to get Hillary emails but unsubscribing will not get rid of this.

Norma Zuckerman has posted an upcoming event on HillaryClinton.com and wants you to come. Please visit the link below to RSVP:

" STOP SEXISM and COUNT THE VOTES IN FLORIDA AND MICHIGAN !"

This is really annoying.

1. So just add the sender to your spam filter. It's not a big deal.

I get stuff from all three campaigns. I delete all of it. Anything annoying gets added to the spam list.

It's really not a big deal.

2. SPAM IS a big deal.

Campaign websites should not be set up to allow their supporters to do this- when you give your email address for campaign updates, you're not supposed to be giving it to ANYONE else who signs up at the website.

3. No, spam is really not a big deal. You click delete and it's all gone.

If you click the spam button it is gone forever.

For all the things to get upset about, I would think this would be at the very bottom of the list.

6. You don't see the big picture on this.

If everyone does this, it makes the internet/email unusable. This is irresponsible.

And its not about Hillary vs. Obama.

8. Oh for goodness sake I give up- carry on with the teeth gnashing.

4. They don't want you to attend...they want you to identify the FL and MI situation with SEXISM

This is simply typical propaganda. You take two utterly unrelated things (FL/MI and SEXISM) and package them together. Then you repeat repeat repeat. It is an effective method, because people start associating the two unrelated things with each other, so they take on the illusion of a relationship. Moreover, in order for anyone to "debunk" the relationship, they too have to mention the unrelated thing in the same breath. This effectively turns even your opponents into vehicles for the dissemination of your bullshit.

5. Turn them in to your ISP, you'll never hear from them again. nt

7. So following the rules....

...in a Democratic primary process--is a form of sexism?

Let me think about this for a second...

BWAHAHAAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!

:rofl:

9. I didn't say anything about sexism.

Maybe you meant to respond to someone else?

[CoffeeCat]

10. I'm commenting about the email...

..you received!

You did post the contents of an email from the Hillary camp, and those comments
in the email included, "STOP SEXISM...SEAT DELEGATES FROM MICHIGAN AND FLORIDA", correct?

[undeterred]

12. Got it.

I thought you were accusing me of sexism.

[CoffeeCat]

14. No, I was just pointing out how...

...utterly ridiculous it is to link not counting Florida and Michigan with
sexism--which was clearly done in that email.

It's completely deranged, wouldn't you agree?

[undeterred]

15. Its ridiculous unless you think of Florida as America's wang

and therefore its votes should not be counted. Reverse sexism by state shape :shrug:

11. This event is being organized by Hillaryclintonforum.net

The worst of the Obama hate groups on the net.

How they got your email address I don't know.

[VolcanoJen]

13. Likely answer: The HillaryClintonForum folks here at DU....

.... clicked on your website, which is listed in your profile, and got your email from there.

Is that your email address, on the website?

[undeterred]

16. no thats not it

I was signed up on the Hillary site, so it probably did come from someone there.

18. Wonder if she's sharing mailing list

for the protest organizers?
