Did you see the testimonials page?

I AM EAGER TO EXPRESS TO THE YOUNG WAR VETERAN DAVIS MY RECOGNITION OF THE SACRIFICE HE HAS MADE FOR THE WELL BEING OF HUMANITY. IN VOLUNTARILY GIVING UP HIS CITIZENSHIP-RIGHTS HE HAS MADE OF HIMSELF A "DISPLACED PERSON" IN ORDER TO FIGHT FOR THE NATURAL RIGHTS OF THOSE WHO ARE THE MUTE EVIDENCES OF THE LOW MORAL LEVEL OF OUR TIME.......

ALBERT EINSTEIN

Oh, and others. It’s a hoot.

Ok that's marvelous.

It's odd that they take payments in usd. It should be some made up worldcoin instead

[–] [email protected] 12 points 8 months ago

I'm surprised crypto currency is not very popular with sovcits. It seems like something that aligns with their desire for lack of regulation.

This reminds me that I was following a crazy guy on LinkedIn who was into MAGA (despite being British) and every conspiracy theory going, and he said at one point he was a “Sovereign Citizen Of The World”. Didn’t think anything of it at the time, but he was managing to move around between countries so I guess he didn’t throw away his real passport yet.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

Hahahaha but probably has since.

Someone's making bank off these idiots

I wonder why they don't accept a letter signed with a 45 degrees slanted signature, verified by a thumbprint in red ink and accompanied by a silver coin for payment. I mean, you can even get a premium gold-embossed passport so it's not like we are talking about scammers preying on the uninformed and weak of mind, right? Right?

Firstly, of course they're not paying child support, because being a sovcit requires you to be an insufferable asshole first obviously.

Secondly, I mean, I don't condone shady businesses practices or grifting. But man, whoever running that is an absolute genius. Scammer for sure, and while I hate scammers to my very core, something about scamming these people in particular feels so very poetic. Someone should maybe tell them, but man... this is funny.

A shocking amount of sovcits seem to get into the deranged world of sovshit strictly because they want to escape child support. I’d be curious to see some data on that, because it’s gotta be like 40-50% of their gateways.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 8 months ago

it's slightly tempting to set up a service that scams them and then gives the money to their estranged previous partner.

I cannot wait to hear how that goes when he tries to leave the country.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Depending on the country, they might not get too much trouble. I am more interested to hear how it goes trying to come back.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I don't think they'll be able to leave - no airline is going to board them with fake docs.

I guess I was thinking of driving into Mexico. They often don't even stop you. Coming back to the U.S. with some madeup papers would not be a fun experience.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago

That's where technically being a US citizen is nice. They will let you back in, but it's going to be a more thorough I'd process.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 8 months ago

And I spent most of my life so far in Australia so I default to needing an airline to go anywhere.

Someone is laughing all the way to the bank. I want to know who it is.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 8 months ago (1 children)

This whole thing has got me thinking about being that guy.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 8 months ago

If that doesn't work out you could be a preacher.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 8 months ago

And you can get one which identifies you as a citizen of the World Government if you’re feeling like beating the Illuminati lizard people at their own game. Or something.

Hey met my first sovern citizen in real life today. What a thrill!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

My mum met a flat earther once, even she thought he was nuts.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Mine was high on something and spouting conspiracy theories. They also thought that Donald Trump and Matt Gaetz were the only honest people in the US government.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

Jesus I had kind of forgotten about Matt gaetz. Has he been lying low lately? No outlandish news of him has come across my desk

Not much to tell except a guy who operates a mop for a living thinks he has outsmarted the legal system.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Well not to disparage anyone's job but lol.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Yeah I'm a laborer myself but I know my limits

[–] [email protected] 9 points 8 months ago

Ive said that if there is a God he did me one favor.

  1. Made me just smart enough to realise how dumb I am and held my ego back just enough for me to be aware that "I might have fucked up" is always an option.
