After beating cable lobby, Colorado city moves ahead with muni broadband - Fort Collins plans universal broadband, net neutrality, and gigabit speeds.

Right now, the GOP is literally insane (deep state, birth certificate, Benghazi, fake news, my button is bigger, fuck the environment, evolution is a myth, pizzagate, Sarah Palin, Donald Trump, homophobia, lock up your political opponents, the press is your enemy, etc)

Those are indeed all horrible and a judgement to how corrupt this party is, on the other hand, are things like social security, healthcare, inequality (which in turn leads to a lot of problems like violence and mental issues which in turn lead to a ton of other problems) and democracy not worth fighting for?

Because the Democrats violated these ideals.

You guys have already thrown the towel if you think current Dems are acceptable in the slightest, had the public become aware of the shit they did a few decades ago when the people still had enough of a spine to stand up to people exploiting you instead of happily accepting their minimum wage jobs until they die of easily curable diseases then the entire parliament wouldve been drowned in blood, for good reason too.

Corruption has resulted in million of deaths around the globe and most of the people that still live are suffering tremendously, the politicians responsible for this are insane mass murderers and this applies to both sides, any details youre debating over are meaningless compared to these atrocities and exactly what they want you to keep focusing on, its a disgrace that the thought of cooperation even crosses your mind.

All of you disgust me, but go ahead, keep supporting your corpse piling saviors that already sold you out, are currently selling you out and will continue selling you out in the future.
