America's broadband shame
The U.S. continues to fall behind other nations in providing fast Internet access to all its citizens. The good news: We're saving rural America from smut overload.

  • "I guess I might have assumed too much background knowledge..."

    Thanks for the condescension, but I have all the background knowledge I need about France, what with being French and all ... And before someone says something about background knowledge of the US, let me add that I've been living in Washington DC for 20 years. So, yes, I did get the joke. I just find it irritating when people mindlessly recycle right-wing tropes as jokes. So my original post was kind of tongue in cheek.

    I guess I might have been too subtle.
