  • Because people don't suddenly develop a hivemind when engaging in a protest. You get a large group of people together and the likelihood that at least one of them is a shithead quickly hits 100%. Add in agent provocateurs and you get situations like this.

  • The Republicans wrecked the world economy in 2008, destroying half the wealth in the world, and were only out of power for 2 years. No matter how bad it is, there is nothing that can pierce the reality distortion field generated by the right wing propaganda machine.

  • Like it or not, it's the only option for high speed internet for large swaths of the world. ViaSat is the only competitor and they're even worse: slower, unusably high latency and ridiculously low data caps.

  • People keeping old ass industrial equipment alive. I had to buy some CD-Rs recently because it was the only way to get files on or off an ancient Win95 machine that had no network or USB ports. The machinery it interacts with costs a million dollars, so replacing it is no small thing.
