Okay, I'm convinced. The net neutrality vote has the same agenda as the one that

blocked out the Fairness Doctrine. After reading this DU thread ( https://www.democraticunderground.com/10141939229 )that tied the FCC chair with a Pizzagate proponent, it seems clear that the FCC chair is not an objective player. His success will be a personal attack on our freedoms.

The Fairness Doctrine allowed conservative media to take off like the Dunwitch Horror, spreading lies without checks and balance. I still can remember how conservatives used the conservative radio waves to their advantage to create a tunnel chamber straight to their supporters. We almost made up the deficit with the internet, but this anti net neutrality rule will allow Republican friendly ISP's to cut down on Liberal voices on the internet.

I hope someone is preparing a Constitutional challenge, because we're going to have to move fast.

When you see and hear about Paul Ryan thinking about bailing,we answer our own questions.
