Jolly fun. Lets start a health care debate as well! However, before we
start, please make sure you know the terms 'communism', 'socialism',
'fascism' and 'Nazism' well and have studied the European states you
use as example before naming them. A fascistic nazi cannot be a filthy
communist as well and although Nazism is fascism not even all fascists
are Nazis.

What I dislike so much about this debates here is the utter lack of
knowledge on the matter and the use of downright wrong information.
Guinea pigs are not pink and saying the others are dirty left-wing
nazis doesn't make it true either. Some people here need some proper
education on debating before they can continue. Not all governments
are like the American and your examples only prove your government is
a bureaucratic nightmare, not the others. Net neutrality cannot be put
aside with the argument that your government lacks all necessary
skills. You only prove that your government is terribly bad.

Instead of putting so much time and effort in undermining net
neutrality, which is a good thing -- at least according to me --
because it guarantees freedom and a government refraining from
meddling with the actual content of the internet, you should better
work on improving the government about which you're complaining so
much.

(This is not a response only to the cited message, but in general to
the whole thread.)
