People on Conservative/Libertarian political sites are universally against net neutrality.
The vote issue is currently confused and anyone who doesn't like it can easily discount it as fraudulent: https://www.wired.com/story/fcc-must-investigate-fraud-before-voting-on-net-neutrality/ https://www.wired.com/story/fcc-must-investigate-fraud-befor...
It's a mess, but really most people at home have no clue what net neutrality is. No one is going to lose their Congressional seat because of their NN position, so they don't care.
- Amezarak 9y agoAs someone who takes care to read as much as possible on both sides, that's not the case. Liberals and progressives, generally, are universally for net neutrality. Chamber of Commerce conservatives, libertarians, and if-the-left-is-for-it-I'm -against-it conservatives oppose it. The rest of the right is almost universally for it and many want to take it further and apply similar principles to platforms like twitter.
- crusso 9y agoWhat exactly is "the rest of the right"? Core movement Conservatives (far from the CoC Republicans) like: * Ben Shapiro: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBrZ_CPgm7o * Mark Levin: https://www.facebook.com/marklevinshow/posts/10153090598298832 * Erick Erickson: https://twitter.com/EWErickson/status/935686186198294529 ... all have come out strongly against Net Neutrality. Here's a Conservative Review article: https://www.conservativereview.com/articles/net-neutrality-as-tech-giants-square-off-whose-side-are-you-on https://www.conservativereview.com/articles/net-neutrality-a... I have never seen any kind of thought leader on the right support net neutrality. I'd be interested in reading any links that you could provide.
