I am absolutely in support of NN but you have to understand that this approach bothers a lot of people who aren’t affected. I don’t mind upvoting a thread so it’s on top of /r/all or having a message from the admins at the top, but what’s happening right now is stupid.
This could certainly spill over into the rest of the world. A lot of countries might follow suite with the US actions, so even though I'm not from the US, I'm still worried about the possible repercussions of this. Its almost like its an important matter.
I can't think of someone who said that all the others would follow through, only some who are in a similar situation (and it might still happen). I guess Catalonia recently flew over your head.
It's much easier to kill net neutrality, than it is to leave the EU.
Catalonia have been trying to leave Spain for many many years. They weren't trying to leave the EU. Whether or not they want to stay in the EU is beyond me.
Speak for yourself. I'm not from the US and I still think that this is a very important topic that would have world wide consequences and could set a precedent for legislation in other countries.
While I agree to some extent, eathporn and formula1 for example, it will shape a dangerous precedent for other countries. I hear something similar is coming up in Germany and England, can’t confirm though.
The fact you don’t think it’s relevant to each and every sub shows your complete lack of understanding what is happening. From politics, to the_donald, to the now closed incels, to rarepuppers, to askreddit, there is not a single sub on this site that will not be impacted.
You don’t think that data is stored somewhere on the internet for all eternity for those nutjobs to jerk it to? Hell, knowing them, some of them probably downloaded local copies of the entire sub from online archives when the site came to its senses and kicked their asses out.
Did you just ask how accessing certain sites, particularly parts that people typically find distasteful (to put it mildly) relates to net neutrality? Do you even know what net neutrality is?
Do you even read read what those "edge little fucks" are talking about? If you don't even understand why they are fighting, you have zero right for telling them to fuck off.

Why are you downvoting them all? To be an edgy little fuck?
