So, while Meta is lobbying for the destruction of the open web and device ownership, Bloomberg is lobbying for the destruction of 3D printing and manufacturing.

    Just fucking why lol? How braindead do you have to be? It’s just fundamentally impossible to prevent actual criminals or terrorists from simply ignoring this and making guns.

    The logic behind all gun laws.

    Is this to permanently prevent individuals to build their own stuff? Like the next manufacturing revolution has to be kept out of the hands of the proletariat?

    Yes.

      And drug laws for that matter.

      I’m not against sensible gun control laws like background checks. And if you want to shoot guns for fun keep them at your local shooting range, or for hunting at your local hunting club. In an “armory”. That works just fine in most of the world.

      Manufacturing a gun requires serious effort and it’s not just clicking a button. But it is impossible to completely prevent, and it’s braindead to try. Not a single gun death will be prevented by this law, unlike gun control laws which do work - at least outside the US.

      PS: Well according to Rossman in the video Bloomberg is just an idiotic control freak. He was also the guy who forced police to have stop and frisk quotas. There is no reason, it’s just genuine Kakistocracy lol.
