Why do Republicans love enshittification so much?
Because they get paid to endorse it.
Not the voters though.
That's the part that's wild.
Many Republicans have cable, and probably even complained in the past about being ripped off with something related to their cable (no one I know loves to complain about losing money more than the Republicans I know).
And yet they vote for people that actively try to prevent that pain from going away.
It's like they are all masochists voting in as extreme sadists as possible so their representatives will hurt them more.
"Ohhh Daddy, tie up the FCC and spank me with more monopolistic cable fees."
They only engage with right wing media which is tailored to spin or ignores stuff like this.
This is the main thing. They will never hear about this because the media they consume will never tell them about it.
