Takes as in seizes

I think you’ve forgotten that the means of production is supposed to be seized by the proletariat, not by the bourgeoisie using their illegitimate government.

the difference is that the united states ONLY takes from the poor

Objectively and provably untrue.

Helion is saying 2028 for their first 50MW plant.

They are the “Jack Booted Government Thugs” that the NRA was yelling about 30 years ago. Literally, it was May of 1995. They were reacting to the spate of violent government actions against people of their community. Since then the NRA has been corrupted, gutted, and finally crushed by the very Government it used to rail against.

Democrats cheered it on while they worked overtime to leave half the country powerless to actually resist the Tyranny they claim to fear. I say claim because they’re still at it right now, today, which is something that no one who was truly fearful would do.

The situation we are in is a reminder of why American’s traditionally didn’t trust Government and most especially overly power Federal Government.

It may read like it but this is not directed at you personally. It’s directed at the wider universe of anti-gun liberals who’ve started crawling out of the woodwork to ask the same question you did and my reply is a snapshot of the overwhelming aggravation that many 2A people feel when hearing it.

Where the gun people?

It’s California, there aren’t that many “Gun People” around. California has doubled, tripled, and quadrupled down to make sure that their populace is absolutely as disarmed as possible. In fact nearly every god damned city that is having these kinds of ICE Raids is located in a State that’s done the same thing. New York City, Chicago, Portland, and Denver are just a few examples.

Add onto that these kinds of immigrants can’t legally purchase firearms so they’re unable to do it themselves or even create Community / Mutual Aid situations and to make it worse they are living in ethnic enclaves so there’s no regular citizens around to help.

The next question is likely to be “Okay, so where’s all the 2A freaks from everywhere else?” and the answer to that is…how the fuck are they supposed to know when ICE is going to raid a place? Especially if that place is in another Town, County, or even State?

After that its usually something like “Well these Gun Nuts should just start countering ICE wherever they find them and not wait for a specific situation.”.

The Anti-Government 2A people you are asking about tried 5 years ago and the same people who are today asking “Where the gun people?” wanted absolutely fucking nothing to do with them.

It happened back in 2020 and no one wanted to help. (Those guys received massive prison sentences by the way.) The Boogaloo Boys in general, and those two specifically, were then widely criticized for their actions even in minority and immigrant communities.

Hell the NRA is still being mocked for its Anti-Government / Pro 2A stance from thirty years ago!

Short sighted idiots cheer while Government disarms its citizens and they strongly back any law or movement intended to disarm them more and faster. Then when some people who are still armed go after Government Thugs they make it a point to shit on them while wishing them a quick journey to hell.

Then these same idiots have the absolute audacity to ask “Where are they?”. It’s the wrong people asking the wrong question.

The correct questions are “Where the fuck has everyone else been for the last 30 years?” followed by “Why the fuck should we help you now?” and the correct questioners the Anti-Government Gun Owners.

For example, I’ve noticed that some websites start throwing captchas at me or even just straight-up refuse to load with 403: unauthorized errors because I have my router set up to load-balance across two Internet connections. (At least, that’s my guess as to why it’s happening.)

I maintain several multi-wan commercial setups and they don’t have this problem. I obviously don’t know what your setup is but I’d guess something is wrong with how its handling flows / connections. Once a connection is established between your edge and an internet resource that flow should remain “stuck” to whatever wan port it started with and it sounds like that isn’t happening.

With the rise of game streaming services like Xbox Cloud Gaming and Amazon Luna I predict that the console market is basically over. I honestly don’t expect Microsoft to release another console and if Sony does it’s almost certain to be the last. Nintendo may stick with it longer since they just released the Switch2 but they seem to be prepping for it with the digital key thing.

It sucks for the players but it makes fiscal sense for the Publishers and Console Makers (Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo) if there is an industry wide pivot to game streaming where players are required to pay every month. I know that some games don’t lend themselves well to this, yet, but it’s blatantly obvious (at least to me) that this is where the industry is headed.

We’ve already reached the end of “Console Exclusive” games and I think what comes next is “Streaming Platform Exclusive” games. I think what comes after that is the Publishers establishing their own Streaming Platforms for their own games.

This is precisely what has happened with the rest of the entertainment industry and there’s no reason I can see for gaming, which is a subset of that same industry, to do anything else now that the streaming technology exists.

Steam and GOG will end up pushed out of the market or they will also become Streaming Platforms, just ones that cater to a different set of players.
