Net Neutrality

Want to read some zingers? Try this: http://www.handsoff.org/blog/ . Wow, I really didn’t know how far the bullshit meter was red-lining these days. Amazing… This is a site set up by the huge corporate communications utilities industries masquerading as a dot org to dupe the common-folk into thinking they are all about keeping the internet ‘unregulated’. The spin doctors are hard at work on this one. You have to read it to believe it. Pure, unequivocal BULLSHIT… All of it.

Yes, we the people WANT the government to “regulate” the Internet. In other words, the government needs to continue to represent, corporate bribery notwithstanding, the interests of the people, not corporations, which are NOT people. They are lying, cheating, ruthless, greedy, anti-democratic organizations out to rule every last collective brain cell of the mostly idiotic masses. They have and continue to maintain a most pernicious control over the populace, mostly through this very type of obfuscatingly brutal attack on unsuspecting citizens. They, the corporations, such as AT&T, Condux, Quest, and other ‘telecoms’ are making it very hard for some poor folks to comprehend the difference between the Wolf and the sheepdog.

C’mon people, get together and learn the truth. If we wait too long to keep these companies from getting their way with things like the internet, soon its going to be too late… our hands will already be handcuffed to the chair… and then what are we going to do? Live the rest of our miserable lives with our heads in that perpetual state of making concessions for corporate interests just because they lied to us, saying it must be so? When the hell will enough ever be enough?

Ever see that movie “The Island”, you know, the one with Ewan MacGregor and that hottie actress Scarlett Johannsen? (she is hot!) That is what I feel like this fucking country has become. We do whatever they say, because, well, they say it; no other fucking reasons; obey, we do, almost blindly. They slow cook us until we can no longer climb out of the pot, like a lobster placed in a pot of cool water about to become a boil. That’s us, loosing our right to a free and open internet because a bunch of rich, powerful lobbyists backed by rich, powerful interests have a great career to uphold… because THEY have a supported voice in Washington, and we do NOT… not because we can’t but because we just simply will not, or think we can not. WE CAN. WE MUST.
