I use the internet all the time at work. It's the best resource I have to get info quick. The way this net neutrality bullshite is presented is that I'll only be able to access sites at work that my company pays for.
This (mis)representation of facts is presenting neutrality in a way that would affect my life in more ways than just my personal one. I'm ingrained in the internet in my work life as well, so I can't just stick my head in the sand and say well back to the old days. It doesn't work like that.

It's not guaranteed. But they'll be allowed to do that. If a site doesn't pay, they could definitely be slowed down, or worse. Or if the site gives an opinion the ISP doesn't like, they may straight up block the website altogether. You may get some overly dramatic opinions about this, but by removing NN, these things are possible.
All net neutrality does, is Force ISPs to treat all internet traffic equally. Why is that such a bad thing? The internet is the greatest collection of knowledge the world had ever seen. Why allow private companies the ability to influence that?
