NN prolongs their existence, so I oppose NN.
Explain that one?
Without NN the ISP's who already have a monopoly get to nickel and dime you over websites, leading to the ISP's having control over the content of the web rather than just providing the infrastructure to access it. Comcast wants to get into the forum industry? They start Comcast.com/forums and throttle TigerDroppings way back so it's slow as hell.
We'd be the envy of the rest of the world. Marvel idea!

I think most of us get it, and don't want the internet to turn into the cable industry. And then there's those that dont, and because they heard it on talk radio they oppose net neutrality. They don't really have any idea what it is they're opposing but they've got the talking points and marching orders.
The sad thing though is that this is such a critical part of our economy, and we're shooting ourselves in the foot letting the rest of the world take the lead on our own creation. The internet has thrived because of its open platform and isn't throttled and sold piecemeal. This is basically the big guys lobbying congress for protection from competitors, so congress delivers. Big government at its worst.
