Anon Gets Capitalized

You communists are all the same, you say you want to overthrow capitalism but without capitalism who would make your masks to overthrow capitalism?

The Capitalists will sell us the rope with which we will hang them.

- Sell the people torches and pitchforks, which they promptly use to stab and char you. As they say, sell them shovels in a gold rush.
- Great quote, gotta keep that one in pocket for when this “hypocrisy” is pointed out every few days
- I think the earliest documented version of this quote (1955 October 31, The Commonwealth: Official Journal of the Commonwealth Club of California) is more intriguing:
  Lenin wrote, “When it comes time to hang the capitalists, they will vie with each other for the rope contract.”
  —Major George Racey Jordan

It's got a point, but capitalists will also gladly sell you every tool you need to overthrow them as long as you have the money for it.

Nearly 150 million adults in the USA can go buy a semi auto rifle right now, even if their plan is to point it at Colt and Smith and Wesson.

That’s because the people selling the guns are the same selling the bullshit news that keeps everyone too stupid to know they’re in a dictatorship
Your point is valid but I think your figure is high.
There's a handful of states you'd need to have a permit which you can't get right away.
There's also the cost. Depending on where you look anywhere from 30% to 75% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck or are one large unexpected expense away from catastrophe. They likely don't have the expendable income to go spends hundreds on a firearm at any given moment.
This is why, even though there's somewhere between 300-500 million civilian owned firearms in the US, those firearms are owned by roughly 32% of the adult population in the country.
- I'm speaking specifically about how many Americans have the legal ability to buy these weapons. The cost involved is why I added the "if they have the money" line.
- There's also the cost.
  Hi-Point: The hole-puncher for the common folk.
  Or auction house AK variants. Or strike old school fear into fascism with a Mosin Nagant or an M1 Garand (ping!).
  Lol memes aside (and not judging!) there's hardware to fill the need at all price points. It's the ammo that's hard to keep up with! Also, safety (and skill) training could be a lot more universally accessible and applied.
  The time is also a severely limiting factor, and of course rhe working class have less and less of it.
  I think our general attitude and understanding about firearms (in the U.S/"West") has been intentionally poisoned into some bizarre right-wing fetish thing specifically to make sure level-headed, educated, reasonable people who weren't ultra-capitalists wouldn't be the group statistically holding a stupidly unholy amount of them.
  I guess my point is: Capitalism will sell you whatever you like. But that doesn't mean it doesn't have a vetting process for its preferred audience. It simply adjusts the culture to make the very idea revolting to those it would prefer not selling to, and amplifying the signal to stupidly comical degrees to its target audience.

I wonder if there's anything else you could 3d print that would help fight against corporate greed?
- Is it... is it this?

Ha! I'm already doing this. I have an account on a t-shirt vendor site where I upload some low effort anti-capitalism design every week. I dont make much money but I giggle my balls off that people buy it. Like a Che Guevara t-shirt from Hot Topic in the 90s... Some people just dont get irony.

Commerce isn't the same thing as capitalism.
You're giving off this kind of energy, dawg
Plus IME they don't really know anything about Che...

Remember when Trump first got elected and Anonymous just suddenly vanished?

I'm sure you are implying something. But what? I'm genuinely asking.
What are you talking about. They did some hacker shit when he got elected. A lot of it is Ukraine and Israel related.
- If it did happen, it certainly flew my under my radar. Which is strange. Then again, Trump is a noisemaker.
"4Q!!!"

- Still super unclear, fyi
No, I don't. In fact, their wikipedia page shows activity up to 2022
The original group got busted years before that.
- People love gaslightning and trying to make things sound like a conspiracy, ever since the fall of Lulz it has sort of "died" you'd see a lot happening both to governments and companies now it's just mostly going after governments, I'd not be surprised if it was just foreign intel agencies to not take the blame for leaking
It got white anted to shit years ago. Anyone with a shred of decency fled
Lol, no. Anonymous had splinted years before then. Lizard Squad (the dipshits that DDoS'd Xbox live and Sony's online service for Christmas holiday in 2014 was one such branch).

They're going after the anger dollar, that's a good dollar. We've done research.

V for vendetta reference?

The remake V for Vending Machine
Doesn’t Warner brothers also get a kickback for each V for Vendetta mask sold because of copyright shenanigans?
- It's a Guy Fawkes mask, and it's part of English culture.

A fitting soundtrack for that message would be 'Surprise surprise' by Billy Talent (lyrics wise).

Also a great track by a great band
- 100% agree!
I first found out about them through their collab with the lead singer of Weezer and they've quickly become one of my new favorite bands
- Nice! You must be talking about 'end of me' then haha. Funny, for me its kind of the other way round, knew/liked BT for some time and then getting more into Weezer. Saw BT live once in 2022 and can recommend 100%. Will see them again for sure (and Weezer already just around the corner next month).
