Net Neutrality Advocates Plan Protests For December 7 at Verizon Stores (techcrunch.com)

Jordan Crook, writing for TechCrunch: During yesterday's announcement of the upcoming vote, the FCC neglected to mention the historic 22 million comments on the issue, the majority of which were opposed to its rollback. In response, protests are being held on December 7 at Verizon retail stores across the country. The protests were organized by Demand Progress, Fight For The Future, and FreePress Action Fund. Here's what the protest organizers have to say on their event page: "Ajit Pai is clearly still working for Verizon, not the public. But he still has to answer to Congress. So we're calling on our lawmakers to do their job overseeing the FCC and speak out against Ajit Pai's plan to gut Title II net neutrality protections and give Verizon and other giant ISPs everything on their holiday wishlist.

I am as tin-foil hat wearing as they get (when I don't have a MAGA hat on), and I espouse the virtues of Randian logic and rejoice in the fact that we have Libertarian ideals guiding our country, with the economy at its zenith, with employment being at full capacity.

However, in my experience where there are protests, I have never seen a Soros-funded bus, nor personally heard of even an acquaintance's mom's sister's cousin's best friend's SO getting a check made from Soros to go and raise havoc in town. I have yet to hear of someone ever getting even cash from someone to do this. Either the socialists/protestors/liberals are extremely good at keeping their lips zipped, or this might just be an urban legend.

Can confirm: reading comprehension is still a difficult challenge for our 'cuck'-wielding brethren.
