Wow, just wow.
I thought your comment was a little troll-y, so I went to your comment history.

So which is it, something Americans can support NN from both sides of the aisle, or just one side of the aisle?
- wvenable 9y agoI absolutely agree that Americans from both sides of the aisle can support net neutrality but one party will vote against it and one side of aisle will vote for that party regardless. I'd love to be wrong but that is exactly what happens.
- monocasa 9y agoConstituents support it from both sides of the aisle at very similar levels. https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2017/06/06/new-mozilla-poll-americans-political-parties-overwhelmingly-support-net-neutrality/ https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2017/06/06/new-mozilla-poll-am... Republican lawmakers however, have overwhelmingly either not supported or stayed quiet on the issue. https://www.fightforthefuture.org/news/2017-11-24-breaking-first-republican-lawmaker-to-publicly/ https://www.fightforthefuture.org/news/2017-11-24-breaking-f...
- lurr 9y agoNet neutrality has been turned into another party line issue at the government level (people are mostly in favour of it). If you don't like that, then complain to the party that keeps voting against it. Don't try to obfuscate facts.
