in order for you to support NN you must first have a taste for government to save you from something in some capacity

I support the principles of Network Neutrality because I have been using the Internet as we know it today since the late 1990s, and I prefer being able to access any site I want at the average speed for my connection over potentially being nickel-and-dimed for mere access to FurAffinity, my mastodon.social account, and The Wrestling Observer Newsletter. We can argue whether government regulation is necessary to uphold those principles, and at what level such regulation should be enacted if it is necessary, but my support for the principles of Network Neutrality is not rooted in a love for government. Do not put words in my mouth that I neither spoke nor wrote.

you are required to have some form of faith that they will carry forward with such a charge of responsibly

I can hope that a government agency will act with integrity and in the best interests of the general public. I can also expect that same agency to completely shit the bed in trying to do its job while complying with the demands of corporations. Hoping for the best and expecting the worst are not mutually exclusive concepts.

This means that you are "pro" big government because a smaller government would not tend to follow the same reasoning that would lead to something like NN.

You simultaneously hold the idea that free-market would fail but a democracy would succeed.

Yes, I believe that a purely free market, devoid of regulations, would mostly fail in terms of preventing monopolies and acting in the best interests of the general public. (Perhaps this belief makes me a fool.) That has no bearing on my feelings about democracy in any form, and my opinion of democracy—it ain’t perfect, but it’ll have to do—has no relevance to a discussion of free markets.

Free-Market is literally an economic democracy.

A “democratic” free market could still become a tyrannical wasteland if one player in said market was allowed to gather enough power and resources to squash all the other players and establish a dominant monopoly that no other company could stop. Do not assume the free market alone would—or could—correct itself if such a major player began to take over.

And yes, by the same token, do not assume that all market segments could—or would—fall to a tyrannical monopoly. The future is never set. But with that said: I would place no trust in major corporations to “behave”, then act accordingly.

If we really were a democracy many people would have voted to keep black people as slaves, and because that is wrong you would seek to stop democracy and use a court to over rule democracy like they did with gay marriage in Californian.

Thank you for reminding us why we have the different branches of government.

your logic is dictated by your party, you are TOLD what logic to have regardless of it’s intellectual integrity!

I register to vote as an unaffiliated independent. What party are you talking about, sir?

You are TOLD to desire democracy even though you actually do not accept it when it votes against you.

Not liking the outcome of an election is not the same thing as refusing to accept that outcome. I do not like how the 2016 presidential election turned out, but I still accept its outcome regardless of how I feel.

You are TOLD to desire regulations even though it is going to protect big business instead of you.

You tell me lots of things. Doesn’t mean I have to listen.

You are told that the government will protect you and that you need to have faith in that despite the fact that it is actively pounding you in the ass!

I would rather have the bare minimum of faith in our government than hope and pray for either tyranny or anarchy. If metaphorical anal rape is the price I have to pay for holding that faith, so be it.

You are an intellectually dissonant person

So what?

fitting the likes of a leftist that holds several contradicting ideas!

Nobody, not even you, can avoid that kind of dissonance across an entire lifetime unless said lifetime is tragically short.

So are you "feeling" the power you received from Ajit Pai?

If I thought Ajit Pai voted for the interests of the general public instead of the corporations that stand to benefit the most from the destruction of Network Neutrality and a toothless FCC, I would answer that question.

if you cannot trust your fellow citizens to economically band together and boycott Disney how can you have any trust for them to band together and vote in a responsible candidate to safeguard your interests?

I do not. I can hope for the best, but if 2016 taught me anything, it is that I should expect the worst possible outcome, then do what little I can to help prevent that outcome. That is all I can do—all any of us can do.

I am not sure you understand anything!

I understand your condescension, your holier-than-thou attitude, your feeling that you are so much better as a person than all the peons beneath you on the ladder of intelligence. I understand that you literally cannot make an argument without insulting the person with whom you disagree. I understand how your ego makes you feel so high-and-mighty that you cannot comprehend that maybe—just maybe—someone a little bit dumber than you can still be less of an asshole than you. And while I am an asshole, I am still less of a gaping shithole than you will ever be.
