    It makes them feel powerful. They have the hidden incantation that sets them above the rest of the proles. I would imagine the venn diagram of flat earthers and sovereign citizens overlaps a lot.

          Do you know anything about sovcits? They send these same letters to their landlords and they wouldn’t pay rent if they could.

          Other people are paying their internet bills and phones, and uploading content here, while others host it. Again these idiots contribute nothing. There’s plenty of other shit to post about.

          They are freeloaders.

            I’ve read that legal opinion and have fought them in court so yes I do.

            You have a point. They would be pretty quickly evicted if they just stopped paying rent and started spouting this bullshit. I would wager that virtually all sovereign citizens are paying rent to someone. E: Actually let me revise this. I’d wager most are in prison. Of the ones that aren’t, I’d wager most are paying rent.

              But it takes their whole government check, (which they make sure is paid to them in actual dollars, not coupons) so they try to get everything else for free. You quickly notice not one of them ever has any money or job.
