One of the dirtiest aspects I've seen in this whole NN debate has been the very ugly behavior of NN proponents. That, as much as anything, has eliminated any support I might have had for NN. Pai digs in and fights back against racist death threats? Good for him. Shame on anyone expecting him to back down in the face of that.

Yeah cause upvoting Reddit and Hackernews posts and typing your name into some website is really going to do anything. If this guy is going to play dirty then I don't see why others shouldn't fight back.

That's a very self-destructive position to take. Unfortunately it also hurts the rest of us.
