MyOneAndOnly 02-26-2015 06:02 PM

the internet is, after all, just a series of tubes


Trotskilicious 02-26-2015 06:06 PM

Trotskilicious 02-26-2015 06:06 PM

That is not a writer for The Onion, that is a legitimate representative of one of the most powerful countries in the world.

Just think about that.

Trotskilicious 02-26-2015 06:45 PM

yeah im proud of it

Order 66 02-26-2015 06:55 PM

Trotskilicious 02-26-2015 07:11 PM

Yeah other people electing rabble rousing demogogues like liz warren and barry stalin we elect men of integrity

Elphenor 02-26-2015 07:13 PM

True Americans

Elphenor 02-26-2015 07:14 PM

Even googling net neutrality is unpatriotic

Tchocky 02-26-2015 07:39 PM

Government should not regulate the web; ISPs should.

~ Every anti-NN argument on my Facebook feed so far in a nutshell.

Elphenor 02-26-2015 07:53 PM

Well duh the market should always regulate itself the invisible hand

Tchocky 02-26-2015 07:56 PM

My cousin (who is anti-NN) sent me this link.

I'm still laughing my ass off at how bizarre Cuban's argument is.

Elphenor 02-26-2015 08:02 PM

No pretty much the opposite.

Elphenor 02-26-2015 08:03 PM

It doesn't matter if I'm informed and nothing is important, but it's just so fascinating

Elphenor 02-26-2015 08:12 PM

What I mean is studying politics is more a hobby than anything else like playing the guitar

Order 66 02-26-2015 08:47 PM

wonder how long till they brand it CommieNet or whatever

Order 66 02-26-2015 08:48 PM

in other #nottheonion news.. sen inhofe brought a snowball to the floor to disprove global warming today

sppunk 02-26-2015 09:00 PM

The Internet is a public utility and should be treated/governed as one. To believe otherwise ignores the fact the Internet is the basis of nearly all communication in the world.

Eulogy 02-26-2015 09:26 PM

Siding with cable and telecomm companies should be the surest sign you're wrong.

I'm one of the more "government get the fuck away" people here and agree wholeheartedly.

no

Trotskilicious 02-26-2015 10:17 PM

also two things

1) seems this is how you feel abt a lot of subjects and then you are condescending to people about knowing things which is downright republican of you

2. your smug ignorance makes me feel embarrased on your behalf, since you should be.

Elphenor 02-27-2015 02:48 AM

It's just easier to say the government is bad always

Trotskilicious 02-27-2015 04:47 AM

this man is a nihilist, donny

MyOneAndOnly 02-27-2015 12:53 PM

If Obama was against NN the bulk of American conservatives would be whole heartedly for it.

this was for years something that was considered necessary by many of those who leaned libertarian and conservative. It simply wasn't controversial amongst conservatives. But now because of the black president it's evil.

Eulogy 02-27-2015 03:57 PM

Everyone agrees with him on this though

Tootles 02-27-2015 04:04 PM

Eloquently written Poots.

Order 66 02-27-2015 06:43 PM

were you always this bad or

MyOneAndOnly 02-27-2015 07:35 PM

He would fit in better if he never posted again

Trotskilicious 02-27-2015 08:28 PM

thing is poots ive seen you demonstrate intellect so the flippant way you dismiss things youre ignorant of is frustrating but whatever bruh

this was a big victory, if you want to know more abt why watch the john oliver thing that went viral and i think really helped galvanize the public abt this issue
