    I really don’t know how they don’t understand the very simple concept that you can’t force someone into a contract.

    But it was nice of him to not charge a fee to keep people updated, I guess.

      But the gubment forced us into a contract of indentured servitude under the social security gold standard emancipation proclamation​!

      It’s all based on the articles of confederation or wtv where it was a bit more free and wild, people had these kinds of rules and contracts between them. Nothing like this of course.

      Basically they think an old government piece of paper that has wording they prefer outweighs the government piece of paper they don’t. (The one they don’t have to pay for, but still get alll the benefits).

        No, you still have to agree to the ToS. They can’t force you. All they can do is say that you cannot access the software or service if you don’t agree to it. No one can force you to agree to a contract. That’s just not how contract law works.

    Imagine if the tow truck guy was ALSO a sov cit and he took the contract and did the sovcit magic and signed his name in red ink at a 45 degree angle on this contract lol. Do you think the original guy would be like “hmm OK yup, you got me” or would he double-down?

    Anyone who makes me read a dumb contract owes me $100,000.00 one hundred thousand Untited States dollars. Since I’m feeling generous, I’ll take Australian or Canadian dollars too

      If that’s how it worked all we’d need to do is run one of those installers that forces you to scroll all the way down their EULA.

    Why don’t I see sovcits demanding fees of the range of 100s of millions of dollars? If they are going to try and insert these beliefs into reality then why not try to become billionaires along the way?

    Thank god the moron wrote out the number values (.00 cents btw!!!) and then immediately after wrote out the same information but in English. This isn’t a fucking check you dumbfuck, who exactly is getting any value out of doing that?

    Maybe you shouldn’t hand write a goddamn “contract” if you’re soooo worried someone might come fudge the numbers you wrote down! Shit, at that point just write out the numbers in English and skip the numerical version altogether. Literally wasting their own time.

      I imagine they think it makes the hand written contact look more official. Is it hand written to be like calligraphy? Or do they just not have a printer. Actually I think every physical writing I’ve seen from sovcits has been hand written. Is that another of their things?

      I would bet you one of their spellbooks sovereign citizen websites told them to do that. Every weird thing they write is based on some stupid rule they think they have to follow.

    How the fuck do you spell “United” incorrectly? The Constitution and the 14th Amendment? Where do they think the Amendments are?

    I do love “overstand” though.

    This is the equivalent of spam – “NOW IN REAL LIFE! ™”

    Did they illegally park while selling dick pills?

      I don’t know, but there’s a very good chance they illegally parked while also avoiding child support payments.

    Making magical gestures …“By your performance, we mutually agree to the binding terms of this contract!”

    Hogwarts instructor: No, you must abbreviate that, it’s much too lengthy, and you’ll be counterspelled. Try this instead: “Contractus Bindero!”
