Net neutrality is good obviously but it's incredibly disheartening to see how disproportionate the attention it's getting is vs how important an issue it actually is

Maybe I'm wrong! Maybe this is actually going to idk get people to be more critical of capitalism! Obviously I hope that's the outcome! But too much of what I've seen has kind of left me (perhaps overly) cynical about that realistically happening in this situation

@gommunisd Yeah, imagine trying to reach out to people based on what they care about and showing them the light from there. Sounds like a bad idea.

@gommunisd Some of us are pretty concerned that our only level information apparatus could become nothing more than a tool for corporate agendas.

@gommunisd The internet is where a lot of radicalization is happening. Some of us see it as a deliberate attempt to prevent those most open to that radicalization from being able to afford to visit sites where they learn to challenge the status quo.

@gommunisd Imperialism and white domination are objectively worse. Slow internet is nothing like 500 years of genocide.

@prodigis @gommunisd Yeah, you're right. Corporations control air travel too, so we should totally deregulate it, it's already lost.

@prodigis @gommunisd It doesn't benefit Netflix for Comcast to charge either them or their customers any more money. They'll either lose customers, or a share of their revenue. It only benefits ISPs.
