      I had a great idea from another post…if you’re looking to pull a few scams.

      AI trump voice. Solicit donations with “real” trump phone calls. Might be able to convince a few of his fascist voters to…well, I mean…I’m sure you can come up with something (that would be helpful to everyone (except tru,p and his crony grifters)).

        You will eventually get caught, have all your illicit earnings confiscated, and go to prison though.

          Yeah, not interested in election fraud. But ID cards, license plates, rubber stamps, and other sovcit bullshit, is all first amendment speech.

    I threw it on the ground

    You must think I’m a joke

    I ain’t gonna be part of your system, man!

    Is the entire sovereign citizen movement just based on an old Lonely Island song?

    I’m an adult!

    That’s fine and all, but it still doesn’t mean they can go on my roads that I pay for and they don’t. They can travel on unowned land and any private roads/property once the owner says it’s okay, but the road network isn’t their’s and wasn’t set up for them.

    Not engaged in commerce means they are just a traveler and do not need a driver’s license.

    I thought this was a bad fake ID she was promoting since she’s smiling in the photo. Somehow it’s stupider than that

    So if I’m actively beating the snot out one of these idiots and they scream, “I DO NOT CONSENT! I DO NOT CONSENT!”, what then?

    I’m sure none of them has signed a contract with the police for protection, so…

      Two key things about actually having sovereignty

      • recognized (hahaha)

      • defendable, either through law or military force. They don’t hold a military, and are apparently their own laws.

      Keep on punching

    I don’t know what a sovereign citizen divine authority is and I’ve seen 3 posts about it today.

    What is going on?

    *Edit: 4 posts.

      Bugfuck nuts people:

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sovereign_citizen_movement

      This is a nice summation, but it gets dumber the more your read:

      Sovereign citizens have their own pseudolegal belief system based on misinterpretations of common law and claim to not be subject to any government statutes, unless they consent to them.

      tl;dr Buncha idiots who think the law doesn’t apply to them because reasons.
