Here's the even funnier thing to me about people in the privacy movement and 3d printing. And I mean people that have never done it. From my perspective, learning to grow your own food is far more dangerous to the state, more of threat than 3d printers. When you know how to feed yourself and your community. When you build a strong community with food security... well why do you need the state. But I never hear people being coy about gardening lol. The vast majority of 3d printing people are making crap. Making stupid toys not useful tools. Especially in places like the US. But I get it. Its fun to play into the fearmongering the state and media pump out about how dangerous we all are. Those extremists!

Based on my experience with 3d printing and people that have never done it... there are a lot of misconceptions about it :) It is a powerful tool for freedom but there's a lot of hype about how dangerous it is for society.

I’ve printed a toilet handle, a doorstop, gun parts, and random accessories to the printer.
I’m looking to explore if 3d printing could significantly alter my consumption habits. If @DarthCoin can build a wilderness fortress in 2023, TheWildHustle should be able to have custom pleb designed 3d printed…
Furniture Gardening tools Kitchen plates/forks etc. Random fixes (doorknobs etc.) Home renovations (countertops etc.) Shoes Bikes Weapons Music (record player, guitar etc.)
In ten years. “Two weeks”
3d printing should further decrease the sovereign individuals reliance on 3rd party intermediaries, and having all of the prints above in your personal cloud server is pretty wild.

Right on!
