Ted Cruz is the Devil.
thoushaltnotpass
There's a set of words, when used unironically, that helps put you in a category of self-deluded biased people. "Snowflake" is one of them.
TrippyTurtle69
36k? That's low-ball shit my senator sold out for 95k.
MrsMeh7
Y'all remember that time Ted Cruz ate a booger during a debate? I do.
donttouchmeimacactus
Ted Cruz came and downvoted this post fo'sho
leon512
This is exactly what you'd expect a incesctous zodiac killer to say to his constituents.
Thegreatbarty
'murica. where people vote in other people so they can sell the first people down river. Freedum.

Cruz be all like "me, an intellectual:"
DrunkenWeasel
What's the best way for me to personally tell Ted Cruz to go fuck himself? Like I don't want to talk to a secretary.
Botarel
God damnit, America.
DaedaIus
I'm seeing more complaints about "Snowflake" then I am "never-do-wells". I wonder if party affiliation has anything to do with it....
berlinson
As a brit, you good, progressive Americans have a real problem with the conservative trash in your country.
DaniaAudax
We should stop calling him conservatives because they don’t conserve anything. We should call them corporatists.
MrRandom93
BetterLuckyThanGood
Yeah we tried de-regulating banks and that worked like gangbusters. Fuck out of here Cruz.
therealpdawg
If you truly believe that banks are "de-regulated", you should try starting one.
GilderoyPopDropNLockart
I like de-regulation because I like to set rivers on fire

He's such a pathetic weasly excuse of a man. He looks like he'd be into cuckold porn.
OGCurious
Government regulations/for the people. Corporate regulations/for the CEO.
DonTeis195
I'd be that bad person to remind Cruz that Comcast would be in the position to remind him of every porn he'd liked. Publicly.
EdwardStarsmith
That may well be why he sold himself so cheap.
mandalorian504
He’ll change his tune when his incest porn stops loading as quick as it used to.
DaniaAudax
Trisar
He's a rich-ass Senator (or rich ass-Senator, take your pick). He can afford the fast lane packages that are coming.
TheCreamer
Source for the 36k?
DaedaIus
Comcast admits it on their site, but it happened during the election. Bit of a stretch to use it now.
Nalianna
Does there have to be a short time between a payoff, and a favor?
DaedaIus
Usually, yes. The 36k was a payoff for another favour, probably a safeguard against the current government AT&Ting them.
ShitHasHitTheFan
Look im for net neutrality but, we wouldnt need it if we had more isps available to us to choose from. The market would allow better choices
Emjayen
That has absolutely zero to do with net-neutrality.
ShitHasHitTheFan
And rates to come in. NN allows government to regulate what isps can do. We should still be free to do online but with more choices than now
tennotenshi
The problem is the high barrier of entry into the market; setting up the infrastructure is very expensive.
Gorillionare
Not taking any sides here but that woman didn't exactly offer a counterargument.
beerisgood760
The downvotes you received are disheartening. Thats a perfectly fair point, yet most just downvote and deflect.
JCstormz
Don't see it that, its an often used and just as often disproven talking point regurgitation
EdwardStarsmith
It isn't possible to offer a counterargument when Cruz didn't really offer an argument.
JHawke
Probably because there is no need anymore, if at this point you STILL don't know any counter arguments you clearly live under a rock.
Munchman347
If you pay me to say red is green, it won't change red and just makes me a whore for money...
shamanbaptist
Also, if you pay me to tell people red is red, it does not make red green.
darynu
Why are conservatives acting like the government was trying to heavily regulate the Internet with NN?
srsfaceI8C
Because it was an Obama era law, and repealing all of those is their one and only goal.
Morrigi
The argument is that one of the sections of NN could have been used to enact censorship in the future, but that's no excuse for ditching 1/2
Morrigi
the whole thing. 2/2
Bonana
As a conservative, i can say with full certainty that these elected officials have no fucking clue what they're doing..
Soufange
Have you seen the Jake Tapper video where an ELECTED OFFICIAL sits there with his mouth open when told you can swear on any book you choose?
Soufange
This idiot worked with Roy Moore and insisted Muslims couldn't run for elected office because swearing on the bible would be a contradiction
ThrowerBot
Because it's the only tactic that seems to stick. I've seen it parroted a decent amount here on imgur.
Hardalor
I'd love for those idiots to explain to me how removing NN promotes competition and growth.
PiggyWobbles
because then people will start ISPs out of their basements in protest. Its super easy, just take the 500m dollars your parents left you and
Hardalor
OH! My bad. I guess I just didn't get that memo! About 500 grand for the hardware, and 490.5m to pay for the routing!
PiggyWobbles
499.5m, unless you're already counting on that sweet 10m executive bonus you're getting from your ISP
TargaryenLoyalist
Because they can’t win using the truth so they use lies instead.
afghanbattledonkey
We aren't. This isn't a partisan issue. The majority of us support NN, our officials are just out of their minds.
Ninjinister
As a not-really-political guy, I've said that I'd probably be republican if they didn't have insane party leaders.
Ninjinister
I almost voted McCain until he chose his running mate.
PoliticalWanderer
Because if a lie will help you get what you want and a truth is inconvenient, the powers behind the GOP will go with a lie every time.
channelranger
because they're bought and fucking paid for by the ISPs.
RdizzyC
Because they inherently think with every fiber of their being that any big government action=inherently bad.
DaniaAudax
Actually, I think even that ideology is a tactic to get votes. They are in the business of sacrificing human beings for power and money.
RdizzyC
Strangely, even the ones that work for "big government" themselves, which is odd.
keenidiot
Putting aside the other comment, they run on destroying the government. They cut funding making programs ineeficient, and use them as -
keenidiot
examples of government inefficiency. And it works.
TheDevilHerself
Didn't this guy get caught liking a porno on Twitter? Why the FUCK does what he says matter? Fuck him. He should be done!
Vaeevictiss
Lol you dumb fuck you can't get rid of someone thats bought and paid for. What do you think this is? A well run government?
donttouchmeimacactus
FunkyTheFox
Should be done is logical. People are stupid
Sonicdahedgie
"Why the fuck does it matter what a sitting senator says?" he asked like a fucking retard.
LeadByBadExample
It matters because he's in a position to make actual changes to actual lives. People should be concerned when he regurgitates talking points
GoodChange
He should be done and gone but not because of the porn. Because he doesn't care for those he's supposed to represent
SaladNoLettuce
He actually does. They don't want Net Neutrality, either...
GoodChange
Not the people he's supposed to represent. I'm talking about every single citizen in the us
SaladNoLettuce
He doesn't represent every single citizen. He represents the people of Texas.
GoodChange
Fair enough
TheDevilHerself
Probably because they think the queers are for it...
SaladNoLettuce
Sure.
AlexisActually
By the way, no they don't. A few idiots parrot what the ISPs told them to, but almost everyone is against NN. Stop partisanizing this.
SaladNoLettuce
I didn't "partisanize" anything. For some reason, when it comes to NN, people just pretend conservative voters don't want free markets.
AlexisActually
Against NN's repeal
psychologicaltrap
I'm definitely no fan of Cruz. But I don't think liking porn on the Internet is that heinous of an activity. His comment in this post is tho
MaverickGoose2020
Plus Cory chase is hot.
AddictiveTendancies
AmArschdieRaeuber
He's an conservative who would, without doubt, condemn porn in public
iamspartan1262
What makes it heinous is how hypocritical it is of him. He's a proponent of porn then admits to watching not only porn but incest porn.
RedIronCrown
I don't think "proponent" means what you think it does.
iamspartan1262
No, you're right. I meant opponent.
Alozar
I would call it condemning considering his political stance towards the subject.

Ted "Net neutrality is Obamacare for the internet" Cruz never had a good grasp on what NN actually is
randomrandomtask
Do you, moron?
WhatzitTooya
He had a really good grasp of that check from AT&T.
ALaVergitaPerrita
Lol thanks for that laugh
aegis27
You say that like that would change anything. The people who write his checks are anti-NN, therefore he is anti-NN. That simple.
sudokori
Obamacare increased my family’s medical insurance from $7k a year to about $13k a year.
terminal7street
Lol
jimmyriba
What? How does that have anything to do with net neutrality?
suos
Implying that the cost of medical insurance wasn't increasing rapidly prior to Obamacare?
Camelspotting
I wish Republicans would actually try to fix it instead of repealing it so they can say they beat Obama.
Nize426
I think it's mainly to get people who don't know what net neutrality is to go against it because they remember being against Obamacare

He's also pretty awful in person, I worked for a hotel that he came to and he wouldn't even talk to the employees, was so stuck up.
Thirstyjohnsfriend
And he's still not even CLOSE to the worst "celebrity" that we've had, that's Dr Phil no doubt. He was so bad if I actually say it I 1/2
Thirstyjohnsfriend
Could probably get sued for defamation of character. I'll let you imagine, I'll just says he's the biggest hypocrite I've ever met.
