My evidence is the congressional record which indicates republican politicians overwhelmingly oppose NN and democratic politicians overwhelmingly support it.
I wouldn't regard a single post on a subreddit as evidence; it is at best an anecdote, and one of dubious credibility IMO.
Politicians do what their constituents want now? That's new.

Visit [1]. See the spike in the graph? That is the link I posted above. It is not anecdotal. As I said, this is the most upvoted comment ever removed from that sub.
An overly-censored troll subreddit [1] is far from being evidence of anything, much less voting stances for bipartisan politics in legislature. In fact, any subreddit for that matter is not a good indicator.
Sounds to me like you're just disregarding anything that doesn't fit your narrative of "both sides support NN". A bunch of subreddit posts are not evidence of anything except the trends of a reddit bubble, however, if you're using subreddit posts to justify your position, I don't understand how you can cherry-pick a single post as evidence, but reject an entire page of posts as "manufactured propaganda". I don't think you're posting in good faith, so at this point I am going to stop the conversation on my side.

Clearly there is a strong correlation between political identity and the politicians that are elected to represent those identities since democrats overwhelmingly vote for candidates that support NN and republicans overwhelmingly vote for candidates that oppose it. This is pretty simple to verify based on the congressional voting record, the machinations of subreddit shit-posting is wholly irrelevant.
People who understand NN support it because it only enables entrenched interests to get more subscription fees from customers.
The strong arm is regional ISP broadband monopolies. Through them, a slew of services can be forced to pass costs on to consumers.
And, by the way, this map [1] is about to feature one fewer "competitor",
