So apparently the FCC has received thousands of fake emails by automated bots stating support for dismantling net neutrality. Which means someone is hacking email accounts to send fake support to take down net neutrality. Which means the FCC is following fake public interest. Which means fuck democracy if you can just hack your way to the results you want.

Fuck

Well, they've also gotten 2.8 million duplicate messages in support of keeping it, because of John Oliver.
Quote from: Jordan Duram
It doesn't concern you, Sister, that kind of absolutist view of the universe? Right and wrong determined solely by a single all-knowing, all powerful being whose judgment cannot be questioned and in whose name the most horrendous acts can be sanctioned without appeal?

Quote from: Supreme Court of Canada
Being required by someone else’s religious beliefs to behave contrary to one’s sexual identity is degrading and disrespectful.
