Nurse Bloomberg is back! The failed presidential candidate with irrational hatred for mere citizens living in ways that defy his wishes has now set his sights on inserting Big Brother into every 3D printer because they might be able to produce gun parts.
“It’s very important that you understand that you’re not going up against the grassroots movement. You’re going up against one individual, in my opinion, that is responsible for 99% of this that is a control freak and likes to stick his dick where it doesn’t belong.”
“The laws that I’m talking about are these laws in New York State.”
“‘No person, firm, partnership, association, or corporation shall sell or deliver any three-dimensional printer in the state of New York unless such printer is equipped with blocking technology that is going to be able to tell if you’re printing a firearm or a firearm part.’ And the definition of 3D printer is so wide. Any machine capable of rendering a three-dimensional object from a digital design file using additive or subtractive manufacturing. This means that dental devices, construction devices, food devices, jewelry devices, all different types of CNC mills are going to be covered under this and they would have to have the spyware installed.”
“This is fundamentally based on a false premise because every single 3D printed firearm tied to a killing has been a hybrid, a plastic frame bolted to metal barrels and slides that are bought online. These are not fully 3D printed firearms. In order for a gun to actually consistently shoot well, you have to have all these different metal parts.”
One big problem is a lot of non-gun parts look like gun parts. “This is a Magbolt pistol grip. And this is the grip to a cordless drill.”
“If you are going to try and create something that can actually detect all these things, you’re going to end up with a bunch of false positives.” Plus you can add extensions to the printed part that are easy to cut off.
“This bill is either going to a do nothing or be even worse, it’s going to do a lot of damage and keep you from being able to print a lot of normal things because it is going to constantly be flagging shit that it should not be flagging.”
“Above all, the reason this bill is horrible is you have to think about what blocking technology is. Blocking technology means it’s going to stop me from doing something. The 3D printing ecosystem is fundamentally created with open-source software. Open source software is software that I can see the code to. And if I can see the code to it, I can edit it and add features or remove features at will.”
Section on open source software and corporate enshitification snipped.
“This isn’t gun control… This is manufacturing control.”
“I’m going to make the case that the person who’s behind all of this is a multi-billionaire that has a two decade long career of having to have dictatorial, top-down control of everything in his life.”
“The new laws that put a firearm scanner inside your 3D printer are not a grassroots safety movement. They’re the work of one billionaire’s organization, Every Town for Gun Safety, founded and funded by Michael Bloomberg, and they fit a documented pattern of Michael Bloomberg dictating how everyone else should live and then spending money to enforce it.”
History of Everytown snipped. It’s pure AstroTurf.
“It’s very important to to ensure that the message that gets out there is not that putting spyware in every single part of the manufacturing chain in the United States, including 3D printers, is a popular idea among average Americans. It is a popular idea among one control freak billionaire who has enough money to make it seem like it is a popular idea when it is not.”
“The blocking bills in New York, Washington, and California share identical defined terms. The same firearms blueprint detection algorithm and the same STL/CAD and geometric code clause appear in each text.”
Section on NYC stop-and-frisk policies under Bloomberg snipped.
“Another example was the soda ban. There was a sugary drinks portion cap rule. A 16 fluid ounce cap on cup and a container size for sugary drinks at restaurants, theaters, and stadiums. This man wanted to control how much soda you drank. If you were going to drink more than 16 ounces of soda, he had a problem with that.”
“This man is obsessed with telling other people what to do.”
Then there was Bloomberg’s initiative to put infant formula under lock and key.
Rossmann goes over Bloomberg’s control of Everytown long past the point of convincing, but I want to excerpt this passage to capture the names of the Bloomberg toadies involved.
John Feinblatt is the president of Everytown Entities. Everytown’s own release is that Feinblatt previously served as chief policy adviser to New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and leads former Michael Mayor Bloomberg’s National Coalition on Gun Violence Prevention. The board is stacked with Bloomberg administration and Bloomberg LP alumni. The action fund chairperson, Howard Wolfson, runs Bloomberg Super PAC and leads education at Bloomberg Philanthropies. Other directors carry Bloomberg administration roles. Dennis Walcott, his school’s chancellor and a deputy mayor, and Fatima Shama, his commissioner of immigrant affairs, both sit on the Everytown board. The books of the organization run through Geller & Company, the same firm that served as Bloomberg LP’s CFO operation. Its founder was Bloomberg LP CFO and sat on its board. The action fund 990 names Geller & Company LLC as the firm that prepared its return. Geller & Company was Everytown’s highest paid contractor in the year of 2024 at $4.5 million.
“Bloomberg thinks that he knows how you should live. He has decided how you should live. He has decided what you should drink. He has decided whether or not you should be allowed to walk down the street without being bothered. He has decided whether or not you should or should not breast-feed your kid. Michael Bloomberg believes that he has control over your breasts if you are a woman who is giving birth. And if you have a health problem that does not allow you to be able to breastfeed like other mothers can, he doesn’t give a shit. He thinks it should still be more difficult. There should be more friction in the process of being able to provide nutrition to your child just to try and get you to conform to his sick, fucked-up worldview where he controls everything.”
“How about we not allow a multi-billionaire to spend all of his money to put spyware inside of every piece of manufacturing equipment in the United States just to make him feel better?”
“The only way that freedom will be preserved is if people watching this video realize that this is a lot more than just one or two shitty lawmakers. This is a serial control freak that has a fuck-ton of money to spend. And if you guys don’t got up off your ass and do something about it, he’s going to win. Don’t let him win. Call and email your legislator today. Show up to their office. Let them know that you don’t want a billionaire to buy the manufacturing supply chain so that they can insert closed source spyware into it. Fuck that.”
“If you don’t want your 3D printers into the future to be run off of closed source software, where the state gets to control what you print and the manufacturer gets to control whether or not you’re able to even use it without paying them a subscription in the future if they feel like it, contact your legislator and let them know that you don’t want one fucking billionaire to be able to control the entire manufacturing supply chain in the United States of America.”
“And if you’re watching this, Michael Bloomberg, fuck you.”
Rossmann isn’t shy about saying what he really thinks.
American was founded as a nation where citizens were free to do whatever they wanted as long as they was no existing law against it. Nurse Bloomberg seems to want to turn American into a European style nation where everything not explicitly permitted is prohibited.
