I asked about them earlier this evening and was considering getting their new printer. I didn’t really need one, anyway. They just seem fun.
You know what isn’t fun? Genocide. Fuck genocide supporters.
Obviously fuck Israel but I have a bit of a different gripe with this thing.
I got into 3d printing to reduce waste, mainly to repair old stuff but plastic waste is still something I try and reduce as much as possible. This toolhead is a plastic wasting machine, not a printing one. I cannot for the life of me justify buying not one but two long thin tubes of liquid only to split the tube in half and only use the goo inside. And then they have the audacity to charge fucking $1100 for it. The XL is already overpriced for it’s performance, this is just adding insult to injury.
they way they make it seems the worst possible implementation. just 2 long thin tubes?
why not 2 reservoirs and valves?
Oh, you white Israel. Remember: the Palestinian genocide is actually about white european jews attacking the native population, including native “darker skinned,” jews. But they want us to believe if you feel that way you are anti-Semitic

Is there any connection between this startup and the government? I won’t support a company that supports the Israeli government, financially or otherwise. But if it’s just a startup that happens to be run by Israeli people, can someone explain why that should affect anything? I don’t support the US government but I would still support American startups
Yes. Any startup in Israel is built on stolen Palestinian land, and Israeli universities are highly connected to the IDF. Israeli startups get a lot of Israeli government funding in general, often paid by Europe or America.

All corporations in the US are built on stolen native American land. The US is currently run by a fascist pedophile.
No one should support solari’s maker space because it supports a fascist pedophile and their maker space is literally on stolen land.
There are Israelis who don’t support the genocide. If that company is one of those, it would be important to support them.
The vast majority of Israelis are pro-genocide and there are stats to back this up. Also, the genocide in Palestine is currently ongoing and not hundreds of years old. That’s the difference.
That’s true but the difference is that the US is not currently actively committing a genocide, to expand their territory for example by slaughtering Mexicans or Canadians.
The original owners of Palestine are all still alive and there is no peace agreement signed to divide the land between the colonizer and colonized.
Americans are also not required to join their military and participate in said genocide. Israelis are. I can’t find any comment of the company or its CEO objecting the genocide so it’s safe to assume they are fully on board.
ICE is ethnically cleansing the country literally right now.
If ICE was oppressing and genociding Americans the same way Israel is doing Palestinians, the 2nd amendement would be outlawed already.
It is, in fact, illegal for undocumented immigrants to own guns.
Being an undocumented immigrant is not exactly the same as a native inhabitant who is being ethnically cleansed. I’d love to live in a Kumbaya world without borders but this is a dick move, not genocide.
Wake me up when the “resistance” organisation isn’t called DSA
2 points: First, considering that the majority of Israelis support what’s happening in Gaza, I’d seek affirmative evidence that they are in the minority opposition. More importantly, unfortunately, is the fact that to the degree that they are successful and make money, their taxes and economic contributions will benefit a government and system that is actively engaging in a genocide of Palestinians, and in the best of time merely oppresses them.
It sucks to have to catch people for are individually decent in a larger boycott, if that is even the case here, but I don’t really see how to disentangle them from the larger Israeli system which, if it continues unchecked, will kill or push out every Palestinian in the West Bank and Gaza.
Damn it! i was just about to order one of their core printers.
Are there any non-nazi, non-facist 3d printer companies out there?
I don’t know anymore. “Companies” is the key word there. Depending on how far you want to go to hold to your values, you might have go all the way back to scratch building a RepRap.
Before anybody asks, no, I’m not being sarcastic. That might be what it takes these days.
everyone wants to join the dark side
