I just hate seeing these stupid things polluting the night sky. Other than Elon Musk, who the fuck wants to see this junk flying around when you look up at the stars?

Seriously. Small towns and rural communities could have high speed network access already if they stopped voting for people that refuse to fund infrastructure spending and that bend over backwards to prevent community-based initiatives to create high speed networks! Elon’s not helping them, he’s exploiting the fact that they’ve backed people who actively keep them in the stone ages.

So we’re defiling the night sky to… help bored Republicans get on Facebook, Twitter, and 4chan?
Well now I’m really sold on the idea!
