Net Neutrality

I highly highly doubt any of what you're saying comes true. Highly.

I'm sure Comcast will make clear that they will not be blocking content, will not be re-routing users. The second that starts happening legislation will pass to make it illegal to do that. I'm not skurred.

I've never read into net neutrality laws until today, and yeah I'm not freaked out about it either. It's basically a rich world problem, boo hoo.

However, this law reversal by the laissez-faire and anarcho-capitalist crowd shows just how much some people like to shoot themselves in the foot. It also is a sign of Trump's true character.
 
I'm not in favor of eliminating net neutrality. You didn't understand that the first time I said it?

As of right now, it's good. As of the 14th, if nothing changes, it's potentially bad.

If something's going to change, why not do it right so we don't have to continue tweeking it down the line? It's just passing the buck.

Doing nothing to stop what's on the docket will cost every private citizen more; one way or another.

OR

Your minor apathy on the subject is disturbing. I recognize you're not in favor of eliminating neutrality, but that's just not enough. Particularly because it's so easy to voice a concern with available tools.

I have...

My lack of fear is =/= apathy
 
I am STRONGLY in favor of net neutrality.

I see that it is 99% likely that it's about to end... for now. I think there WILL be negative consequences to it ending. I just think people are being silly with the extent to which it will negatively impact us. Like net neutrality is the difference between liberty and oppression.

Where are you guys when cops are searching peoples' pockets on the street with no warrant and no reasonable suspicion? Where are you guys when police dogs are used at inland boarder patrol checkpoints? Where are you guys when our government executes people? Where are you when extreme mandatory minimum sentences are given out?

Oh wait, your porn might not load as fast if you don't pay a premium.. sorry, let me drop everything and freak out.

I sympathize with the "it's not the end of the world" part of your argument. But I'm not a fan of the "children dying in Africa" part.

Yes, we were bitching about these things when Bush/Obama pulled away these rights too. Too bad their where people like yourself who were like "Oh well, if it gets too bad they will just change the law".
 
this is the only way to explain it.

Too bad? I didn't give anyone permission to end net neutrality. You're being silly as ****.

I've never done anything but oppose ending net neutrality. I haven't been ambivalent about it.

Simple minded people need fear mongering for motivation I guess. I don't. I don't need to imagine boogeymen in order to take an ideological stand on an issue.

Again, *******, where are you on the 1000 other injustices in our society that are already happening? Why is net neutrality the doomsday to end all doomsdays for you?

Will it be bad? Yeah. Will I do whatever I can so that it doesn't happen? Yes. Will it almost certainly happen anyway. Yes. Will we live through it? Yes. Will Trump and his band of idiots run this country forever? No. I don't give them 2 more years.
