My mom works with internet people. I remember when I was a kid she was making fun of them for saying internet should be a basic human right. Nowadays, it would be hard to find someone who doesn’t think that lol

They know full well that internet is a necessity to participate in society.
That is why they are blocking it with every fibre of their being.
To them, poor people are poor because god is angry at them. They deserve to be poor.

(Edit 2: /s would apparently have been the appropriate indicator of my lack of seriousness. TIL!)
if only there was a way to indicate sarcasm…
