>Carr, a guy who historically lets giant telecom monopolies run endlessly roughshod over U.S. consumers and the market, couldn’t actually care less about these rules or whether these companies are actually violating them (and they likely aren’t). He’s simply looking for something to harass public journalism over.
Wilhoit's Law strikes again!
"Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect."
- taylodl 2y agoThis is the first time I've seen someone quote Wilhoit's Law. Do you know him? I really enjoyed working with him.

It sums up the conservative mindset perfectly, though in a way the vast majority of conservatives would fiercely disagree with. And just because there's apparently confusion about which Frank Wilhoit said this, I'll leave this here: https://slate.com/business/2022/06/wilhoits-law-conservatives-frank-wilhoit.html https://slate.com/business/2022/06/wilhoits-law-conservative...
