    For a while, I was reading these posts and trying to understand exactly what they were saying. I kept thinking there had to be some little bit of rationality in there if I just read it a few times.

    Now I’ve realized that it’s just a bunch of mumbo jumbo. They seem to think there’s some sort of magic spell that if they just use the right capitalization, ink color, and magic words then all of their financial problems will disappear.

      Logocentrisim is the idea that language is a proxy of reality rather than a symbolic representation of it. Sovcits just seem like the logical outcome of this kind of thought. When broken down, most of their arguments are semantic.

      You’ve probably encountered people online who think this way, just not so extreme. They won’t use that logic to file their taxes, but they will try to win debates with it.

      They just don’t have the right grimoire from the school of legoligy that will allow them to perfect a scroll to cancel their debts. Of course it’s said that the only known copy was written by a mad Arab that causes the sovereign citizen to go insane once understanding the true nature of the legal system.

      What, you’re saying you don’t understand her “form of method” for paying—or not paying—her bills? And you don’t see how it’s a total WIN when they send a letter back saying, “invalid form of payment?” What kind of dum dum are you

    Oh, bless. Chase is one of the companies that will happily let this person have enough rope and then pull the trap door lever.

    They don’t try this with groceries. It’s almost like they know if they have to succeed they don’t try this… Hmmm

      Schizophrenic people at least are often nice when they’re doing well, and God bless them it’s not their fault. Sovcits are n just nasty and crazy.
