There is literally no chance of us civilians being able to overpower giant telecommunications megacorporations and their lobbyists from killing net neutrality

dont wanna sound like some fucking nihilist but democracy is dead, whoever has the most money always wins, folks need to go out and destroy the rich in able to achieve anything

government agencies don’t care for you, they wont listen to your petitions, being a citizen voter doesn’t matter on the federal level as the bourgeoisie will just pay for laws that provide them more profit, the proletariat don’t have $50,000,000,000 to slip into the pockets of the FCC chairman to “persuade” them

what does work though folks is direct action, the bureaucrats aren’t going to even consider your thoughts or needs unless you torch their $100,000 cars and throw cans of paint on their $4M houses

Seriously folks, if it gets destroyed, which it WILL, you people need to go out into the street and cause property damage to telecomm conglomerates and scream at the FCC until they bring it back

If net neutrality is killed and all we see are angry posts and a few buzzfeed articles discussing how Disney characters would react then there is absolutely no hope for the people of this country to stand up to any sort of authoritarian control if they can’t do anything besides blog about their rights being taken away

And don’t listen to any of the propaganda being spewed by bourgeoisie institutions like Bloomberg or CBS or NBC saying this is a good thing, literally every argument for it is saying “the internet is too chaotic and messy”, who else would say this besided the owners of the parent corporations who will make TRILLIONS off of the earnings of us proles

Another effect of this will be restriction of freedom of speech, the working class won’t have a way to communicate and express themselves when you have to pay 15 bucks a month just to use a website. And you bet your ass that those that do are going to be presented content that aligns to the corporation’s political, social, and economic leanings

Tumblr, which is owned by Yahoo and it’s parent company Verizon (which would be one of the 3 telecomm megacorps that would make tremendous amounts of money off of net neutrality being killed) has begun to delete posts regarding net neutrality awareness, as well as automatically removing the net neutrality tag from people’s saved tags

Corporations have the ability, and will enforce it, to silence opposition against their profits, spread this like fucking wildfire
