    I really believe that in order to subscribe to the SovCit bullshit, you have to be mentally challenged to some degree. None of these idiots have ever won a court case or a civil suit against a bank. Even if everything they said was true, it’s a blantly obvious fact that our legal system doesn’t agree.

    Suspend disbelief for a moment and give them the benefit of the doubt. They’re still clinging to beliefs that have been proven time and again not to work with our modern legal and financial systems. Nobody with a properly-functioning brain could possibly still think any of this is a good idea.

      I have to assume the majority of these posts are people who are poorly educated, under extreme financial stress and discover this apparent easy escape from all their problems. Presumably the majority eventually realize it doesn’t work and stop posting - causing a lot of churn but keeping the community of sovcits populated.

      No-means-testing true UBI would probably kill it for good.

      For me it’s like…if all this is true then why isn’t this guy rich and winning court cases left and right? The only possible explanation is that this isn’t true because he’s not.
