No one understands net neutrality

I had hopes after Freepers' initial take on net neutrality was that it was going to immediately shut down their website. But Freepers' reaction to the FC passing net neutrality regulations has mostly been super boring rote "the GOP Is full of RINOS, never vote Republican!" crap.

But a few actually venture to discuss what net neutrality will mean, and in those few Freepers one can find the unthinking idiocy I was hoping for:

central_va is, of course, ready for Civil War 2.

The Obama juggernaut continues on its destructive path.

Immigration, net neutrality and keystone dead. Man this guy doesn't skip a beat. He's turned the Presidency into a dictatorship.

Payback is hell.

central_va is pretty sure the entire country is as negative as Freepers.

The GOP candidate that simply says "I plan on reversing everything the Obama Admin did to the USA" would win. That is a simple campaign message.

CincyRichieRich joins the crowd that will be surprised in January 2017.

Why does anyone think Obama will just leave in 2016?

The upcoming “green tip” ammo ban should be a big hint ..

I believe you are correct, and the amount of blackmailing these R’s have against them must be staggering. If he didn’t leave and refused to leave, what would change? Who would physically demand he leave and actually evict? What would be different than him doing executive orders (oh, without actually putting them on paper...like that matters)?

Not a thing.

joethedrummer is ready for war. Again. Always.

How much more are we going to take?

__rvx86 loves acronyms!

It gets worse: My ISP could decide to STOP their LTE rollout, then shut it all down later thanks to the Obamanet...probably taking the UMTS with it too, since 3G and 4G are more expensive to build and maintain...after all, the bare minimum 3G standard (according to the CCITT) is EDGE.

Thanks to the Obamanet, they’ll probably only be able to profitably maintain the bare minimum...wonder why the UK only got LTE in 2012? This.

GraceG recalls an oppressive and overregulated time.

The 1930’s called, they want their regulation back...

Political Junkie Too knows what the secret real regulation is:

I think one reason Obama is keeping his net neutrality regulation a secret is that he's going to eliminate anonymity on the internet.

No more anonymity means they can find you if you post something they don't like.

Also, anything political will be treated as a campaign contribution and must be reported to the FEC.

John S Mosby is really angry:

If you think this is good government, you have no business on FREE Republic.

This is a Republic. Not a God-damned oligarcy. Unless of course your idea of conservative is the company a@@hole at the country club clubhouse who lives off our tax money teat.

Differentiate this OBAMAUMAO driven FCC regulation from ANY kind of yet again crony capitalism, just like Solyndra. Comcast kicks back Democrat donations, just like Buffett (for more than 3 decades). The mack daddy in the White Hut is lining his (and any other dem’s) pockets, for their pals in... media. To control us.

How do you derive from this, that I “sound” like a socialist, since it is the socialists who are driving this entire issue. Hillary’s dream— control the internet, control the content. Put FR out of business. That is a FACT. Deo Vindice (look it up).

Another big govt. FReeper. Consult our Constitution.

He's arguing with lavaroise, who is similarly incoherently angry about the same thing:

it is not Net Neutrality in the Swiss term of the word, but a definite war aiming to equalize the bandwidth advertisement by siding for “minorities” leftist fraud products, a complete government gender and race division justifying rationing of so called “allied” and conspiring non minorities.

Since Soros is behind it and is for a totalitarian view of Open Society and against Laissez Faire, the ultimate aim is campaign finance and information controls, forcing us into 501c type abuse.

Lazamataz predicts oppression. Any day now.

Enjoy being able to post what you just did.

By this time next year, or maybe the year after that, that post will be something that will get you arrested.

If these are insufficiently crazy, fear not! Freepers overtopped themselves when Boehner refused to shut down DHS. That post is coming this evening.
