If you can’t publicly register your car, you can’t use public roads. Be sovereign on you own sovereign roads.
You can travel, just not on roads. Get a horse like the founding fathers intended
These players obviously and clearly wanted “the people”, not just adults, “to keep and bear Arms”.
To that end, I want nuclear warheads for the schoolchildren stat and I want to outlaw bullets, please. No I’m not kidding I’ll see you all in hell.
Mine & my wife’s new guilty pleasure is watching youtube channels (Van Ballion, Law with Mike) that features these morons getting arrested as well as in court.
Nothing like watching an idiot escalate their traffic citation into 4 felonies. Bonus points for MAGA stickers.
Mine is joining sovereign citizen Facebook groups and giving them bogus advice. It’s hilarious what I can convince them of (just harmless stuff like using certain stamps and ink colours and nonsense like that).
You mean like this sort of thing? I’m appalled at how easy it is for me to believe they’d go for something like this. 😁
“Bring in your documentation unsigned and tell them you used invisible ink. They have to accept it.”
Yes! I will reply very seriously to one of their stupid questions something like that they need to submit the T.298.101 form to their local notarizing deputy attorney using a fox postal stamp in red ink, with a codicil appending the 1099A, and they are like “oh ok”, and then my messenger request is full of questions from sovcits haha.
The poor person working behind whatever desk they bring it too. Not completely harmless, if it’s mailed, absolutely, but if they have to interact with a human, I feel bad for that human.
Think you mentioned that yesterday, made me ponder.
Perhaps someone knows why, while it’s obviously quite funny, it… doesn’t quiteee sit exactly right with me…
Maybe it’s like when a comedian punches down. Or maybe I’m assuming a number of them have legitimate mental deficiencies (schizophrenia? learning disabilities?).
Hey I bet you’d be really good at wasting scammers’ time. Like Kitboga! Would love to see you running the Lemmy version of 419eater :)
Every minute the scammer I’m communicating with is spending on me is a minute he is not scamming a real potential victim.
🙌
FWIW I scam white supremacists on a daily basis. They all think I’m their friend and I’m really the person getting their social media accounts blown up. :)
As opposed to the legitimate legal advice usually seen in sovcit facebook groups :)
Similarly, there’s an amazing documentary called “Behind the curve” that I’d recommend, if you haven’t seen it.
The sovcit thing is really big, courts see it extremely regularly, and it’s become a standard view in prisons for, uh, reasons. So people convicted with video evidence of them doing it want to represent themselves.
I listened to a motions hearing where the defendant spent almost 20 minutes asking the judge “by what authority are you allowed to call me [his name]”. (The question the judge asked was “are you [guy’s name]”) and he would go into his sovcit loop until the judge was just done and was ready to send him back to prison. It was very boring insanity. It’s also not unrelated to why Trump is popular with men in prison.
I remember many, many years ago first hearing about this “Did you know that you don’t have to pay income taxes if you just do …” thing, way before “being completely disconnected from reality” was an acceptable political position.
“Huh,” I thought, “I should look into that, see what that’s about.”
Fifteen minutes later: “Oh, it’s just looney bullshit.”
It just amazes me that Wesley Snipes even tried to use this to avoid paying taxes.
He should be rich enough to hire an accountant who knows how to avoid paying taxes the proper way :/
He did from memory. It amazing how many celebrities fall for “snake oil” salesmen. Being rich doesn’t make you smart.
Blows my mind how people can think they can just claim to be immune from laws and government yet be free to use the roads they avoided taxes to pay for.
They do! Freedom of movement is guaranteed in the constitution (article 4). OP is free to walk as far as they like; they can even ride a bicycle without a license!
Operating a motor vehicle is another matter, but then, SovCits are not strong on critical thinking skills as a rule.
I wonder if they would be fine with people using that excuse while traversing their private property.
