    Is “overstand” part of SovCit lingo? Because that’s a new one to me.

      The Moorish sovcits have some weird lingo. They say “eye” in place of I, sun in place of son. Seems related to Rastafarian lingo.

      There is a flavor of SovCit thinking that refuses to say “understand” because they believe it secretly has a double meaning to “stand under” someone and give up your rights and accept their authority. They think judges and police are trying to trick them into waiving their rights when they ask if the SovCit understands something.

    “Overstand?”

        It’s quite the evidence of an intense inferiority complex.

        That’s because they’re one admission away from claiming that what they do is magic. Which also doesn’t work, but good luck convincing people who practice it of that. Same with prayer, which is effectively the same thing. It’s all nonsense words that have no effect on reality.

      Yeah they love to legally retaliate, and there’s not much you can do about it, if anything. Usually you’re safest bet is to just be polite and hide your contempt on the inside. It’s not like we can do anything about them, voting sure doesn’t help.

        And illegally retaliate. What are you going to do? Call the cops? At worst they get a free vacation and you’re stuck with an even bigger bill, or worse. It’s a dangerous game.

    I’d just post - “you know everything you need to know for this! Your overstanding is compleat.”
