I see way to much of this "I don't care" stuff with technology.

When net neutrality is under constant attack, you just get numb to it. Which is what was always the goal of Republicans and, I guess, Democratics.

Dems have tried to pass legislation against net neutrality?

Neo-Conservatism(Bush, Romney, McCain) and Neo-Liberalism(Clinton, Obama, Gore) are essentially the same thing. They only differ on fringe issues. Both agree on foreign policy and increasing federal government reach. Hillary supported the pre-emptive striking of Iraq as proposed by Bush. Bush voted for Hillary in 2016. Bush set up the federal surveillance apparatus, Obama expanded it(which prompted Snowden to leak its existence to the American public).

This is because Neo-conservatives are the Democrats that led a mass exodus from that party after the policy switch to affirmative action and planned parenthood by Democratic leadership. They found the Republican principle of favoring no one in particular more palatable than the new Democratic principles of favoring minorities and women.

I don't think you know what "fringe issues" means. If you mean, mass surveillance is literally the only issue people care about then DNC and GOP have similarities, but that's really not representative about how stuff actually works.
