Myth of the 20th Century Cody Wilson – Defense Distributed
Described as a “praxis against American mono thought”, Cody Wilson’s work at Defense Distributed, which designs and builds machines that allow you to design and build implements of defense, has been an integral part of the modern conversation on the right and means to bear arms. Wilson himself has long held an interest in civic discourse, serving as student class president in high school and college, and before dropping out of law school, was on course for a noted, yet still normal, middle class life. This all began to change for Cody when he discovered, through embracing one of the very fundamental principles of American culture and constitutional law in the 2nd amendment, that the American Empire, in its drive to dominate, is very different in practice than the original spirit of the founding documents of the Republic. Freedom, justice, and liberty for all no longer seems to apply – if it ever did. But the one great lesson Cody’s experience may remind us is that in order to enjoy such virtues, one must always stand ready to defend them.
