The powers behind the FCC’s muscling of the Internet Today’s vote by a bitterly divided Federal Communications Commission that the Internet should be regulated as a public utility is the culmination of a decade-long battle by the Left. Using money from George Soros and liberal foundations that totaled at least $196 million, radical activists finally succeeded in ramming through “net neutrality,” or the idea that all data should be transmitted equally over the Internet. The final push involved unprecedented political pressure exerted by the Obama White House on FCC chairman Tom Wheeler, head of an ostensibly independent regulatory body.
“Net neutrality’s goal is to empower the federal government to ration and apportion Internet bandwidth as it sees fit, and to thereby control the Internet’s content,”

Yeah, the part you bolded caught my attention too. It’s so on-target about the prog mindset.
i guess i missing the point. because he gave an opinion that net neutrality was good, he was banned?
Do you think the FCC usurping authority and declaring the internet a public utility and regulating it is a good thing?
That guy thought that punishing his IPS and getting a faster Netflix speed was more important than our liberty.
Do you share that sentiment?
my question was, are you saying he got banned for voicing an opinion?
You have to ask Jim Robinson why he was banned. But if you try promoting the homosexual agenda or abortion rights on this forum, there is a very good chance you will be zotted.
Does that bother you?
Do YOU support this Net Neutrality crap? Is that why you are concerned about why he got the Zot?
ok, so first, you need to take a chill pill before you blow a gasket.
second, you inferred from your earlier post he got banned for saying net neutrality was a good thing. now you’re saying ask jim.
so why did i want to know? its one thing, like you said, to promote an agenda like homosexuality, its quite another to have a different opinion. i wouldnt want to contribute to a website that would ban someone for that.
and since you’re so interested in my opinions, i’m come here because i generally agree with this sites philosophy, other than vaccines, which most people here seem to approve of, and animals, which i dont mind if peta protests animal cruelty at, say, a medical lab that uses animals in experiments, i would say i’m pretty right wing.
if that helps you at all.
So, you are posting on a thread about the takeover of the Internet by Obama’s lackeys at the FCC and your principal concern is that someone got banned for arguing about how great that was because it meant that hiss Netflix speed was going to improve.
I take it from your concern that you agree with the banned poster and disagree with the decision of the site to cancel his account.
Does that pretty much state your opinion?
It’s NOT net neutrality....it’s Net NEUTERING!!
This story is NOT a complete one because John Fund is a gentleman writer, very talented and a man of integrity.
However, the history of “net neutrality” as brought forth by McChesney and Nichols is one of a MARXIST program, not a LIBERAL program, and that is the crucial issue here.
Both men are avowed Marxists/sympathizers (same thing here), so let’s call them who they say they are, Marxists.
Let’s say that Obama and his Marxist minions in the White House and Congress have this Marxist agenda of seizing control of the internet, much as they used Marxist plans and ideas to seize control of the healthcare system (Dr. Quentin Young was one of the “fathers” of it, esp. “universal health insurance”. Young is/was an old Communist Party USA member who later went with the rising Marxist organization, the Democratic Socialists of America, Obama’s foot-soldiers in the political arena. Young was also Obama’s personal physician for many years, a part of the “Chicago Communist” group that surrounded The Messiah since he was born.
It is time to stop being polite and call our enemies by their real identities, communists and Marxists, traitors and dupes, greedy pigs (Pelosi, Reid and Feinstein), and those who are stupid as dogcrap (most of the Congressional Black Caucus, some of whom are hardcore commies; the rest being the most stupid people I’ve ever seen in Congress since I started covering it in 1970 as a journalist).
In the case of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, it overlaps with the Congressional Black Caucus, and some of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, but in the end, it is purely Marxist in orientation.
No more Mr. Niceguy, John Fund. Tell it like it is, politeness be damned. Your readers deserve the unvarnished, documented truth about our domestic enemies and traitors.
If you want to be polite, then you can call most of the Republicans “fools, dumkoffs, powermongers, and stupids”, which is being really soft on guys like Boehner, McCarthy, P. King, Mitchell, Alexander, Flake, McCain and others.
If you don’t tell the truth now, you may not get a chance to do it in the future. Remember, once an ideological strongman like Obama ( think of Castro and Chavez for precedence) gets his hands on the means of communication, he will never let it go and soon “political correctness” will become “censorship” with fines and jail time. Just look at what is going on in Cuba, Venezuela, Saudi Arabia, ISIS territories, and even in Canada/England/France with their “speech codes”.
Tell the full truth about our enemies. Speak for yourself, John! But speak the truth.
