re: It's glorious watching reddit, libs, and cucks melt over NN repeal

quote:

I like how so much of the reasoning people give for being anti-NN has more to do with Obama, melts, and lib tearz than any substantive benefits of repealing NN.

---

less government involvement and a win for capitalism are substantive benefits

even if the NN repeal goes bad, it may make people do stuff in the real world that don't involve the internet. the horror

This. I’m as MAGA as they come, and I have yet to hear an argument against net neutrality that was different than these:

1) Remove government from the internet
2) Stick it to Obama
3) Watch the melt
4) Well, we’ve lived without it before

None of those are merits. We need SOME government regulation. Currently, if you don’t like your internet/cable provider, you can’t do dick about it. But at least you can cancel cable and stream. (Although, they jacked up my internet cost to $70 per month for doing that. Oh goodie. I could get it for $20 per month if I bundled it with $100 worth of channels I don’t want.)

Now, I understand you’ll call it “fearmongering”, but why would the cable companies allow this now? They will either slow it down or make it expensive. It’s just common sense.

It’s not capitalism. It’s corporatism disguised as capitalism.

My hope is that Google Fiber starts making progress and dominating these blackmailing assholes.
