Yes I know, I know, Mister Metokur but this video of his is by far the best overview of this poo poo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVtviNDrDS8 The dude with the obsession with water is rad.

There is one of this guy who ends up getting his window smashed on his rented truck and arrested at the border for not showing his license even though he had it and wasn't doing anything illegal Like, he was so dug in he went to prison rather than pull out his ID

OldTennisCourt posted:It's an offshoot I'd argue but my lord do I loving love sovereign citizens. It's the perfect blend of absolute smugness and completely loving idiocy. It will never ever not be hysterical to me that these loving numbskulls bring up the Articles of Confederation as this absolute defense of their rights when that poo poo hasn't been in use for literally like 200 years. Watching these people crazy themselves into an arrest, and then crazy a court apearence into prison is highly amusing.

What always gets me about conspiracy theorists is that they seem to believe everything that is a conspiracy even when its contradictory Like, you never seen one go "Aliens built the pyramids but that ghost and bigfoot stuff is bullshit"

I find gang stalking more fascinating but it also gets sad when you realize it's the product of severe mental illness. Sovereign citizens are a lot more fun because it's just persistent self owns.

something about canadian legal scholars' engagement of sovereigns rubs me the wrong way. There's a lot of idle bemusement, with neither condemnation nor any deep inquiry into causes. It's become a low-effort way to get an article published. though it's an improvement on the SPLC's approach, which was counter-reactionary panic ("three million anti-government extremists!!")

here's a take: sovereigns understand history better than they are given credit for, and in many cases better than the legal experts who denounce them

Wanna get myself Dees art collections and just leave them on the coffee table for company to see.Dr. Killjoy posted:The Mandela Effect is pretty neat because psychologically it works on people because of how fragile and susceptible to manipulation our memory really is. Just suggest something totally contrary, anything really: show a group of people a (photoshopped) period appropriate photograph of Bugs Bunny at Disneyland and half of them will start recalling seeing him their as kids, or suggest they could have been molested (or abducted by aliens). Heck the fact that there are baby boomers who’ve been seeing long remaining contrails their entire lives but now believe that they only started showing up in the 90s is perhaps one the better illustrations on the magnitude of this phenomenon.

LonsomeSon posted:It turns our that a lot of conspiracy theories involve racism once you start to drill down into them, or possibly every conspiracy theorist I've known has been a white person. speaking of which, the entire gist of illuminati conspiracy theories hinges on Jews controlling the world. there was a very good blog post i read somewhere dissecting the whole thing and saying that inner-city black people (which the author says is a particularly widespread belief there) should stop believing in that poo poo because of it

Sure he's tepidly correct in a very general sense, but his interpretation invariably conflated "rich assholes" with "zionists/Jews," and argues that they're killing us with vaccines, microwave emitters built into our phones, GMO foods, fluoridated water, and fiat currency.

One was pretty adamant aboutOldTennisCourt posted:literally every american has like 1 billion dollars in a super secret mega ultra double hidden bank account and added some poo poo about the stock market and the powers that be using our secret accounts for it, also something about the police being a corporation because if you look closely you'll see an LLC on the side of cop cars or some poo poo.

One was pretty adamant about can’t find the article but apparently Sovcit found its way into the black community through one of the hucksters offering lectures at churches. One guy got off of death row by essentially ruining his own case to the point where the judge could not in good conscience complete the trial, and he’s become living proof of the efficacy of the method.
