🧵 Alright so this is a topic that comes up all too often with a take like this. So I think it's time to quash this.
Lots of drivers who are in the industry can tell you that we do not see ourselves getting replaced by AI or self driving trucks anytime soon, at least not at scale.

Tate Adamiak, Duncan Lemp, Dexter Taylor, Demetrio Daga, Socrates J. Sudi, Brian Malinowski, Peter Celentano (Freeman), Kyle Myers (FPS Russia), Kristopher Ervin & Matthew Hoover (autokey card drawings), the 82 people that died at Waco, the Weaver family and I could go on and on and that’s before I even talk about OCONUS examples like Stark & Lucas Queiroz (Joseph the Parrot)
The expansion and abuse of the ‘stop-and-frisk’ law in NYC, used on minorities (Bloomberg)
A US president blamed all gun owners for a school shooting and was a breathe away from getting a nation wide AWB (Obama)
A US president reclassified a piece of plastic as a machine gun, thus making everyone who owned it subjected to NFA repercussions (10 years & 250k per violation) with the stroke of a pen (Trump)
A US president created an entire funded and staffed office to publish propaganda, lies and gaslighting in order to push policy giving them more power to take rights away in collaboration with non profit groups funded by a literal James Bond level evil villian billionaire (Biden/Bloomberg)
A US president weaponized the ATF to aggressively attack and scrutinize FFLs for clerical errors and misspellings on documents leading to fines and several FFLs being shut down, several of which I know personally. (Biden)
Yeah, gun owners are actually heavily and in some cases exclusively targeted.
You included.

Being an American gun owner means that something perfectly legal yesterday can become a felony that gets you raided by armed men on a hair trigger. Not uncommonly resulting in your death.
Normal people bought guns, from federally licensed dealers, with pistol braces on them. We came THIS close to all of them becoming felons, with no recourse.
Better yet, it often happens by accident, or because of bad information. You’re not even the one who ran afoul of a law. The cops just fuck it up. The police mistook Duncan Lemp’s perfectly legal Tavor for a full-auto... for some reason? And shot him to death in his bed.
Tate Adamiak sat in prison for years because an informant just made shit up, and the ATF decided to keep rolling with it.
There are, without drama or hysterics, very few other entire groups of people where the mere act of existing can bring rapid and violent death or long-term imprisonment. Regardless of social or economic class, race, gender, location, age, or sexuality.
Beyond that, we have all the other hallmarks of every other oppressed minority group. Entire political parties campaign on our erasure. Basically the entire world outside of the US with few exceptions view us as a disgusting plague full of backwards people that the entire planet would be better off with us gone.
Police will often shoot you just for being armed, regardless of circumstance, sometimes even after YOU called them.
So what's the argument we aren't?

In an almost surreal video, Ron DeSantis describes Utah's current politics, the crony capitalism (that many of us call corruption) that the Utah Republican Party has been pushing for the past decade and why that has led to Utah's lurch leftwards, especially with young people. He even decries the Data Center taxbreaks that Utah's corrupt legislators have been handing out, thereby increasing the burden on our middle-class who pick up the tab.
Ron DeSantis, thank you for speaking out for the people of Utah. I couldn't have said this better myself. I hope that the Utah legislature looks inwards at their behavior, spends the next session rolling back their corrupt laws like PIDs, SB258, and others that hurt average Utah citizens to benefit their donors.
Clearly Utah voters are done with the donor class, and it's time our politicians start paying attention to the actual voters who are the source of their power (or lack thereof).
Only 6 hours have passed, we already got several people! I'm excited about the potential behind this concept and looking forward to seeing it play out.
Alright, alongside @disagreebutter and @ghostofghostPR I've established a new group which we'll tentatively call the "Utah Hunting Club".
If there's other young men or just young people in general that want to learn how to hunt and fish and just have a sense of comraderie and community, direct message me with your interest and I'll be happy to send you the join link.
If you have wanted to hunt but never learned how, I'll be willing to teach. If you are an experienced hunter, you'll be welcome to the group, too.
This group will be Utah focused, but we will make considerations for others in the Intermountain West on a case by case basis.

The Anthem posting will continue until “regional distribution” improves.
We're sorry to all the patriots missing the National Anthem from the Raise the Flag mission. We are aware that this is detrimental to your solemn duty to pay respects and pledge allegiance to Super Earth. Select music tracks in Helldivers 2 have been removed due to regional distribution considerations. We appreciate the community's understanding.

It’s barely been 36 hours. They aren’t waiting. They’re coming after your guns.

The House did their job on that and passed the SAVE Act. It's @SenateGOP that fucked up.
It shall be my expectation that most @HouseGOP should commit seppuku in great shame for their weakness that has led to this midterm election.
SAVE Act was an option, you fucked off on it. The only honorable thing to do is end your own miserable existences. Especially Thune.
