Chuck and Kareem from Open Source Defense join Nathan and B.R. this week to dive into what OSD and Open Source Capital is all about! They unpack their mantra of "100% Gun Rights, 0% Culture War," explaining its meaning, the origin story of Open Source Defense, the broader team working behind the scenes, and how their day jobs in tech and professional fields—especially Chuck's decade at Facebook—shape their unique industry perspective. The conversation turns to Kareem’s work on the OSD Substack weekly newsletter, featuring accompanying art by Daiji from 999 Defense, as well as social media algorithms, censorship, and if there are any clever ways to work around them. They explore how emerging technologies like VR are amplifying "international gun culture," and share their thoughts on the most significant technological, legal, and cultural advancements for gun rights. Also discussed: Open Source Capital, a venture capital initiative from the OSD crew aimed at bolstering companies in the civilian defense industry. The guys explain why they launched it, who they’re looking to support, and why nurturing the high-level business and influencer side of gun culture is vital to its future.
