TL;DR:

If we don't have a Department of the Internet immediately, we'll have millions of ruined people suffering from destroyed communities resulting from job offshoring ideas.

If you vote right, we'll all rise up and collectively kill the internet hoarders and the committee at City Hall of our democratically elected comrades will distribute all the hoarded internetz according to need.

The wise city council and federal city is our only hope.

TL;DR

We are WORSE off (once again) by adopting this dumb ass ideology's ideas. Just because something is good for Comcast doesn't make it good for the American people. Who could possibly have seen that coming? I know right?

Apparently, the only viable choices here are between Gulag Communism and Monopolistic Crony Capitalism. There is nothing else.
SJWs are a natural consequence of corporatism.

Another good one was another rural broadband carrier that forced people to click through pop-up advertisements in order to periodically restore their Internet access. Good times ahead! WOOOOO! Freedom!

Take back our internetz!

The 100mbs has been stolen from us, right out of the air!

Marxist gibs-hounds are funny anyway, I'll give them that.

Ain't no call for gibs, fife. I want net neutrality. The same kind of neutrality applied to every other utility in this country.

In case some of you have not figured this out, the "duopoly" -- such as it actually existed -- was nothing more than corrupt politicians doing the bidding of corporate American sponsors. That's all it was. What we are seeing right now is a revolt in both parties. The electorate is completely fucking done with people who think like Nick does.

This shit didn't help the GOP in the midterms one bit either. These kinds of people need to be driven out of the party.
I deal with the public everyday, so I'm used to it. Its not so much the projecting cognitive dissidence that astounds as it is the stamina.

How long do you think I can keep him screaming into the wind?
I see. Be sure to play your violin for the millions of ruined people suffering from destroyed communities "cognitive dissonance" resulting from your job offshoring ideas as well.

I never had any illusion that you people would admit how wrong you were, even when half of America is economically destroyed. Now you just laugh at the victims, but do not come crying to me when they decide to hang rope.
Net Neutrality has helped my community.

Take your globalist shill elsewhere.

2014: Asheville was going to be the second city after San Francisco to establish a city-wide WiFi service because the only provider charges so much that most of the working poor could not reasonably afford access.

2016: The merchant cunts that infected the state GOP, passed a law written by their cable company donors to literally ban city WiFi to protect the the cable company's monopoly on WiFi.

Probably a good idea to let those same cable companies discriminate network traffic so that video streaming competitors have to pay more (really consumers pay more). Great idea. Fucking morons.

Ah, Fife happens to live in an area with access to a better option. Therefore there is no issue.
