    Jesus. I mean, the general lunacy in these posts is already an overwhelming amount of proof, but the way some of these people communicate really seems like clear evidence of some kind of…mental…break? I mean, I know that’s not something I can diagnose reading a post or two, but Jesus. Who organizes their ideas and tries to communicate this way? It’s so…disjointed, and, like…well, crazy. It’s batshit crazy. Not just the ideas, but the crazy stream of consciousness, cluttered, poorly strung together aspect of their attempts to communicate with others.

      You ever listen to Trump talk? Every sentence sounds like he had a mini-stroke during it. These are his people.

        Trump makes sense! You just listen with an ear, and only one ear, towards what you want him to be saying. Seriously. Try it. I’m not being funny.

        Now have a look at the transcript of whatever talk you heard. Now parse meaning out of those words. Put in on paper. Trump said…

        It’s wild reading his words in text vs. the spoken word.

    Do these people ever win? Is there a single success story ? I don’t understand how this place sustains itself. Even R/wallstreetbets occasionally has a win in it.

    Can anyone explain what he is doing here? They are about to repo his truck, but what the f did this guy do with letters and expecting the CEO to answer?

      It’s sovereign citizen crap. I don’t know about this case specifically but usually they believe that if they make up an unrecognized legal principle, like ‘debt is only valid if collected by the CEO because that’s who I did business with by buying from the company’ that everyone else is beholden to the shit they just made up, and if everyone else doesn’t play along with them then they don’t have to comply with anything. No it doesn’t make any sense, every legal argument they make is a series of assumptions built on assumptions, ignorance of legal precedent, and the reality of how laws work.

      It’s made even worse by the fact that sometimes companies run into these people, go “the last one we ran into was an absolute lunatic that stressed out half our team so I’m not fucking with that again for $[x],” write it off, and now you have a bunch of sovcits telling each other that their magic incantation is the right one because it worked for them.
