      There’s a lot of overlap. They’re not directly connected, but the types of people who are likely to write about God in all caps all over their car are also the types who might have very unorthodox opinions about how the law works.

      I think this particular person likes to flaunt religious status. Doesn’t seem like being a sovereign citizen is a religious thing

        It has as much basis in fact as most religions do. It offers a faith-based legal defense to all those who try it, and I imagine it attracts the same sort of people who are attracted to that sort of irrational reasoning.

      When your life is dominated by “alternative facts” it’s very easy for you to find yourself in a parellel reality, where things work the way you think and everyome who is more educated than you is part of a government conspiracy.
