    As a Georgia Power (Southern Company subsidiary) ratepayer, this offends me. I will now vote with my dollar to punish them.

    Oh wait, I can’t because it’s a fucking monopoly!

    It is literally tyranny that a de-jure monopoly like this is allowed to publicly have an opinion at all, and even more so that it’s allowed to fund the broadcasting of said propaganda with money forcibly extracted from its ratepayers (who have absolutely no say in the matter, short of disconnecting from the power grid).
