This one sovcit group I’m in is called Secured Party Creditors. They are the ones who are obsessed with the UCC. I’m still not quite sure what kind of meth they use.
My preferred way to browse here is using All and blocking communities I don’t want to see. That way I get exposed to new things I wouldn’t seek out on my own (for example: British archaeology)...
No communities, but I blocked the whole Lemmy NSFW instance because I am not into porn and autoplay GIFs in my feed is not to my liking. (you all do you I just don’t care for it).
One of these sovcits, Chris Hauser, has a FB group I’m in where he was selling people his various nonsense, and now he literally is doing time but none of them believe it and can’t understand why he won’t answer their messages anymore.
They’re so disgusting. Like truly subhuman. One of them told me how her daughter fed her granddaughter meth in her baby bottle to stop her from crying and she died.
The other thing about them is that their pets CONSTANTLY die. Like every day I open that Facebook and another one of their pets has mysteriously passed. Or a family member or spouse and they’ll never say why. It seems to be a very rough life.
A sovereign citizen is a loosely associated group of right wing anti-government extremists that emerged in the 1970s as an offshoot of the white supremacist religion Christian Identity. They believe they are not governed by the laws of where they live (hence sovereign), and that they are not required to have licenses, plates, insurance, ID, etc, and that they can pay bills by sending in nonsense correspondence with magic codes they think will eradicate their debt. They believe the government holds a 2 million dollar secret trust in everyone’s name and that you can pay your bills by “accessing” that trust through magic paperwork. They are a huge nuisance to cops and courts, “paper terrorize” the government to the tune of millions per year in frivolous litigation, and are a frequent source of hilarity in YouTube for their notorious traffic stop videos where they almost always end up dragged out of their car. They are properly bonkers.
Some of their reasoning isn’t known. The red ink, 45 degree angle, thumbprint stuff, nobody seems to know where it came from, not even the researchers who follow this stuff. Sovcits are only loosely associated with each other and there are subgroups of them (called American state nationals, secured party creditors, etc), so basically everything they do gets passed around via word of mouth, and each is more nonsensical than the last. It’s only the last handful of years that researchers have been taking a good look at them, but they’ve been around since the 1970s, so a lot of the origins are probably lost to history.
I honestly think some of them, based on what they have said to me, just have part of their conscience missing. One of the told me his neighbour was the Toy Box serial killer (don’t Google if you don’t know it, it’s really gruesome, basically a torturer and killer of women), and he does live where he did so I think he was telling me the truth, and he assured me the women who were killed were all whores who were asking for it.
“Their frustration is understandable, but this kind of expectation betrays a misunderstanding of what’s actually driving food prices higher in this country.”
I switched to the locally owned Polish grocery store and the international grocery store. Way more interesting food and better deals. Best idea ever.
I do have to go into the local Loblaws because my pharmacy is in there (it’s steps away from my home and switching pharmacy is so difficult when you’re on controlled substances, and at least the pharmacy is independently owned), and saw some guy loading up his backpack with stuff the other day and laughed.
