As much as I know they're crazy, I agree with how they got there. It's not like public education does a good job of educating citizens in legal and government literacy. The US government is biased, abusive, and puts corporate interests over the welfare of people which can trap folks into a kind of life they can't possibly hope to escape from. There aren't many options for people who want to leave society. Few places to go that aren't owned, protected and regulated. The sovcit movement is madness, but I understand what broke these people and made them want to take control of their lives. It's a shame people profit off providing misinformation to these folks.

Most of them are people just trying to get out of paying child support.

Quit putting that nonsense online, it’s not a poor, uneducated people thing. The Netherlands has had more than decent education for everyone since forever, and it still has an extremely fast growing sovcit problem since about 3 years. Reiterating the “bad US gubbernmint” claim is not helping anyone.

I'm sure screaming into an echo chamber is helping everyone.
