    Hey OP, I’ve seen you commenting elsewhere, so I’m guessing you aren’t a bot. How come you post so much sovcit stuff? Don’t get me wrong, some of it is hilarious, but it seems like such a narrow topic to post so much about

    Edit: forgot to tag you because I’m really curious to know the answer. I summon thee: @BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world

      Also definitely I am not a bot. I’m just personality wise kind of like the kid who tried to dig to China with a teaspoon.

      Eh Lemmy needs the content. It wouldn’t be so obvious if more people posted their FB drama for us to laugh at, though.

      The OP runs this community and sovcit posts have gotten the best continued traction here.

      Everyone loves laughing at them and it’s valid “insane people Facebook” posts.

      I think we’ll likely see less sovcit posts as time goes on and people get bored reading the same sad story of these people over and over again. But it’ll take a bit for the novelty to wear off

        I have endless collections of these posts so I won’t stop anytime soon. Also it’s not depressing insane people Facebook so I think it’s enjoyable.

          Nice. I enjoy them too.

          I guess I should have spoken only for myself there. For me, I think the novelty will wear off in a few months.

          These folks are definitely struggling and being taken advantage of somehow. It’s fun to point and laugh, but I also feel sorry for them.

        I’m not bored and we have quite a vibrant little community here of people discussing legal shenanigans and comparing their own countries/legal systems. A lawyer or two has jumped in to comment.

      Hey, I’m in a lot of sovcit Facebook groups for the laughs. I think they are crazy and funny and so fun to share here. There’s plenty of crazy people on Facebook but most of them are depressing in some way, either mentally ill, conservative, or otherwise hateful. A lot of people don’t know much about sovereign citizens so I take this as an opportunity to share a part of humanity that’s wonderfully crazy so more people know about this movement because it’s growing.

      It’s funny but kindaaa punches down due to rock bottom IQs and even schizophrenia.
