By your description I'm assuming you're talking about the old hospital in LA by the 101? If so, that's just where they house a bunch of the poor brainwashed minions.

Their headquarters (Gold Base) is right beside Hubbards old mansion in San Jacinto on like 500 acres. Not so cheap looking

You are technically correct though. I probably shouldn't have thrown enshittification into it, as they are somewhat unrelated. But, the loss of neutrality makes it unbearably easy for the monsters. I personally get frustrated with the current state because those of us that fought against it's repeal saw this coming long before the bastards finally got their way.

At the beginning of COVID and online shopping to boot! Ma and Pa businesses everywhere forced to close their doors, and little option to sell their goods online without bowing down to the man

Yes, but what I'm getting at is that the repeal of net neutrality gives telecom companies that as you correctly stated were never good to consumers in the first place, the power to now fully, legally kneecap everyone that's not already a monster monopoly.

This drives us into an even further monopolistic state, as you can't get yourself out there without them. Which in turn allows them to make the product way shittier than they could have otherwise, as they now know they hold all the cards, and can't just easily take our business elsewhere

To uphold the constitution!?

These courts no concerns ever burning taxpayer dollars on much less pressing issues all the time!

I guarantee that if they don't stand up now, it has nothing to do with legal cost. It has absolutely everything to do with fear of backlash from ludicrous dipshits, and having to have the spine to tell them to fucking deal with it

Most of these hillbillies probably barely have the money to campaign, let alone hire a defense team to make a case of it in court. Just say, nah, You're ineligible to run. And as if the courts don't have ridiculous, frivolous cases all the time anyway

Keeping Republicans out of office and the FCC is a good start. Obama fought against repealing it his entire presidency, despite tons of pressure from big tech and the other side of the aisle. I think it's congress would have to change laws to protect it?

It's not an excuse. Groups and races of people that have been through that sort of thing carry an emotional trauma and pain through generations. Same as black people. Same as even women do. There have been many studies on it, and is grounded in science. Nowhere did I fucking state that what they are doing or have been doing to the Palestine people for the past 80 years is acceptable! I'm saying that it should be looked at more along the lines of a mental illness, and treated as such. Kiss my ass

MAGA brain, Capitalist pain. Or just Capital pain

I edited it to be more readable

Not currently, no. But, that's a large part of what net neutrality insured. That ISP's weren't allowed to create fast lanes for companies that paid, and throttle those that don't. It's one of the most talked about aspects of net neutrality. You think they've all been allowed to do it now for the past three years, and just haven't?

Sick of YouTube's shit? Heres this open source alternative, awesome!

Buffer, buffer, buffer... ISP says, lulz, no neutrality, throttled bitch!

Try a VPN. They're all largely shit for a different reason. We sold out freedom out of fear of the WMD's

I thought I remembered that a major factor was the Cuban vote in Dade county that swung it for Trump in 2020, due to Trump going on and on about Biden being socialist/communist, and you know, their history...

Yea, the enshittification process predates the internet, so yes.

However, the loss of net neutrality has lead to these monopolies being able to rapidly speed the process in a large number of ways, from ways they work with and imprison advertisers and vendors to their platforms.

Their ability to buy telecoms favor. With the death of net neutrality, now broadband Bros shape the face of the internet for the most elite and powerful companies. Silencing the little websites and startups that used to show up in search results amongst giants like Amazon, eBay, Facebook marketplace, Ali, etc. for ma and pa trying to run a small buisness. Making us all slaves to these monopolies, and the handful of companies you must deal with, enshittification, obnoxious new ads, and all, just to reach the masses.

Elon says you can't even put your Mastadon handle on Twitter, etc. I could go on and on.

The death of net neutrality has emboldened big tech in a massive way, as if it wasn't bad enough before. It had pretty much insured that the big boys all get a fat cut of everybodies pie, and you just gotta grin while you eat their shit, or starve

Yes, every native English speaking Walmart shopper are perfectly fluent, masters of the linguistic arts. They are known throughout the Americas to be amongst the classiest and highest educated group of shoppers known to man. Even the ones known to procreate with their sisters are likely to have a degree. Likely, a masters. These are stats and known facts of the highly esteemed shoppers of Walmart

Ah, thus the deflecting post of Biden bound and gagged

Think that's "droppin' and yellin'"
