There are some alternatives that are usually affiliated with a religion. CHM is one such organization. Members all pay a recurring fee like they do with insurance, and all have access to the pool for their healthcare.
I have never used one so I cant speak to the efficacy, but it seems to answer your question.
I guess I understand where the idea comes from. That said, I print with both materials and I have had so many more issues with FDM. My resin prints almost always come out right on the first try, and I've never had to tinker with my Elegoo Mars Pro; it just worked out of the box.
I'd love to hear where you think Robin Hood is from
Since when does anyone claim the right to have a specific cashier scan their groceries? The black man walked to another lane no harm.
This is what you sound like.
We need to get creative and we need to get into people's faces.
Agreed. Do you have any suggestions? I do also think it will be easier to mobilize people if there is a successful social media campaign.

You know how various fantasy and sci-fi settings will say something like, "____ uses both science and magic," when describing how the world works? That ususally makes no sense. If magic has laws consistent enough to be used in machinery, it is just another branch of science. But with that out of the way, is that the only thing magic can be?
If magic was not just another type of science, it would have to supercede the natural world. Imagine a fantasy world that has gods who bestow power to their acolytes. Rather than using a natural process that could be recreated by mortals, the gods could actually break physical laws or even write new ones on a whim. In this world, magic isn't bound by a naturalistic worldview since it can change based on what a free-thinking entity chooses at any given moment.
That was a roundabout way of saying, "I don't think it matters." If the supernatural (magic) is knowable, we do not currently know it. If it turned out to be real, we may not even have a way of meaningfully interacting with it.
I applied for a passport with the correct gender marker! Still has my dead name, since that has to match my other documentation and hasn't been changed there yet. Weird but convenient that the gender marker can be different than your other identification.
As a lefty who received "gifts" from her conservative parents, let me suggest giving the gift separate from a major holiday. Something I wish my parents had done that could work as a gift of sorts for you would be to take your son out for coffee or breakfast. Nothing fancy, preferably not busy. Talk to them about why they think what they do. Don't combat them, just try to understand. Ask them if they would be comfortable talking more after you've had time to think about what they said.
"Hey [child's name], you know that we have strong beliefs about certain subjects. We feel we have good reasons to believe the things we do, but there are smart people in the world who disagree with us. You are a smart kid, and that is reflected in the way you look for answers to problems that the way you have been brought up to think hasn't offered a solution for. It would mean the world to your mom and I to know out son better, what are some things you've thought deeply about recently?"
If you have it next to an open window for ventilation, you can put a paper shopping bag or something over the cover to block uv light without blocking the fan.
Removing supports before curing the mini will leave the least amount of bits behind.
I recommend translucent resin; in my experience it cures better especially if you have a larger model that needs to be hollowed.
Only bother hollowing if you have more than a dime's* width of void in the model, and obviously make sure you have a hole to vent gas that would otherwise build up inside. (* no science to this, just my rule of thumb)
On holes: they don't need to be big, just make sure they are large enough to not be sealed by resin that accidently isn't washed off and then cured. (Definitely not something I've done no no)
Painting is fun, maybe start with cheaper brushes until you get a feel for resin models. If you are accustomed to painting plastic models, you will be surprised at the wear and tear the layer lines inflict on your bristles.
