But Americans, particularly the younger generations, have been paying attention to this Net Neutrality issue for months. We know that this is their sneaky way of taking away our Constitutional Right To Free Speech. And they want to stifle our creativity and innovation with excessive regulation, taxation and bureaucracy. And they want to make us pay dearly for allowing them to do it to us. Just like Obamacare.

This paragraph is a classic example of muddled thinking, incoherent in the way it is structured.
Who is "they?"

The paragraph refers to three separate entities, or groups : the Younger Generation, they (by inference, never explicitly identified) is presumably the government or the bureaucracy which may refer to the executive branch, or any of its created mini-executive branches which all individually or collective have co-opted the other two branches of government.

Any of the current bureaucracies (mini executive branches) can now create laws, establish new taxes, ignore the Constitutional defined duties of government and, like the original "Executive Branch" create or ignore legitimate Constitutional limits of power with impunity.

And getting away with it!

What is no longer in any doubt whatsoever is that the internet is the only remaining glue that the rest of us who are neither members of the "executive" departments, or the Hydra that the Executive Departments have become, or the related bureaucracies, without which the rest of us will be totally unable to do anything to resist that "Total Transformation of the United States of America."

Taxing the productive into impotence, and eliminating the only means to communicate and remain organized pretty much defines the ugly place where the "takers" and the totalitarians want us, the working, net taxpaying Americans, to enter, and just shut up.

Enough with the semantics already. You know damn well that “we” are the citizens (not “subjects”) of The United States Of America. And “they” are the fat elites who want to control our lives because they think that they are our “betters”. Your post was useless babble.
