    I know these sovereign citizen people exist, but sometimes when I read these things, I can’t help but think somebody is just fan fic spoofing the whole thing. Like there can’t really be anybody this delusional, right?

    Maybe don’t answer that.

      Back when I was a young man, I loved stupid conspiracies. I thought it was like the old nosleep on Reddit. Everyone who was saying these things were in on the joke and everyone who took it seriously and complained about it was just stupid.

      I learned better. I was joking but a lot of people weren’t. I realized one of my exes was a serious conspiracy theorist and not just playing along with me. It was a sad day.

      Dude I know one with a law degree. Law firm I’ve consulted at for decades accidentally hired him. Favor to a friend of one of the partners. He lasted maybe three months before he committed major malpractice and quit before they could fire him?
