Clearing Up Confusion on Net Neutrality’s Demise (June 11th, 2018), And What To Do Now

Tue, 26 Jun 2018 17:45:36 -0400

lumber-jack-white:

There has been a lot of confusion and misleading information about Net Neutrality, leading to me getting tons of mature, often uneducated comments on my post such as, “Pussy liberals, nothing changed!” or “Its leftist propaganda! We need less government oversight on the internet!” and my personal favorite type of comment, “Net Neutrality ended in December!”

I also admit to following some of the misleading posts, for as much as I try to research before spreading said “information” that came my way. But I will cover all of this right now to clear the fog.

1. The end date never changed, it was miscommunication. A lot of people were confused because the end date for Net Neutrality kept changing, but it didn’t ever change. Back in April or May, posts were made claiming it was the end for NN, but that wasn’t correct. It was the deadline for Congress to enact the Congressional Review Act (or CRA) to review the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) December 2017 decision to roll back Title II Net Neutrality Protections, which passed the Senate, and is still sitting in the House Of Representatives (more on that in a moment). Title II Net Neutrality Protections were officially rolled back and erased form the books June 11th, 2018.

2. It wasn’t ever going to change overnight. Internet Service Providers (ISP’s) know that we have our finger on the pulse of everything, and wouldn’t be stupid enough to censor, slow and overcharge on day one. But over time, it will happen slowly and randomly. Less attention is paid to something when its no longer fresh news. Its done in a way to make it seem as if its not happening at all.

3. Rescuing Net Neutrality. The CRA didn’t go through the House in time for Monday’s official repeal, but it still is sitting in the House and can be voted on through December 31st, 2018. I also believe this is called a Resolution of Disapproval, but I definitely recommend researching all of the official titles for these acts instead of just taking my word on that portion. Anyhoo, if it passes in the House, it will then go to Trump’s desk to either be passed or be veto’d.

Now, you’ve been told numerous times to call your representatives, and that is still what you should do, and always should do, when you want to be heard.

How to contact your representatives

Go to this site and enter your zip code.

Call the phone number listed on the site for your House Representative

Tell them you support net neutrality, why you support it, and tell them to use the Congressional Review Act to pass a “resolution of disapproval” reversing the FCC’s vote. NOTE: There are scripts, but its also important to edit this script in a way to not just sound like every other scripted call. Make it individual!

And finally, remember to register to vote (look up rules for your state as it differs for dates and deadlines to register before an election). There will be a Primary, and then the General Election in November. Get the word out, remind others to register, do thorough research on the candidates of your choosing, and VOTE. Its easy as pie!

PS. People think I’m a dude named Jack, and its hilarious; I am a girl and my blog is a pun based on this guy here: Jack White.

Not gonna lie I am mad that my previous post has 4,000+ notes, but this one, that I worked hard to make sure all of the information was accurate, is a fucking ghost town.

Please reblog this, people need this information.

The differences under the ace umbrella

I’ve reblogged this like 12 times but it will always be relevant

This analogy is good, and even easier to understand once you think of this “urge” as being hungry.

Asexuals are never hungry. Demisexuals aren’t usually hungry, except sometimes they walk by a donut shop they’ve become familiar with over time and there’s a chance that they find themselves hungry. Grey-asexuals sometimes get hungry, sometimes not.

Some aren’t sure whether they fall under the ace umbrella or where on the spectrum they’re on, because they think they might’ve felt hunger before but they’re not really sure if it was really hunger or if their stomach was just upset or what, so they’re still figuring things out.

None of them choose to not be hungry.

Sex-repulsed aces don’t like/hate donuts for different and valid reasons.

Sex-indifferent aces don’t mind donuts. Some will maybe eat some, but most times they probably wouldn’t go out of their way to go look for donuts to eat.

Sex-positive aces like donuts. They’re not hungry when they eat donuts and they’re not eating donuts to stop being hungry, but they like eating donuts, so they do.

I really like how OP mentions that celibacy is the same as going on a diet, because that really shows how different asexuality is compared to celibacy. Generally speaking, celibate people will still go hungry but they choose to not eat. With asexuals, we don’t get hungry, period.

I think of sexual attraction more as appetite, and sex drive being like hunger. So for aces with a sex drive it’s like you might be hungry but nothing ever looks good.

@anon this is probably the best explanation I’ve found.

i didn’t know this til i looked up the video on youtube, but this dude is a super cool and accomplished musician! his name is Rushad Eggleston–wikipedia describes him as “an innovative musician who has changed the way the cello is played,“ but according to his personal website he’s a “cello goblin & otherworldly jester currently touring earth”
