Huh. Call me provincial, but I had no idea that sovereign citizens existed outside of America. The idea of a Cypriot sovcit never occurred to me.

in general, things do exist out of the U.S, its just people in the U.S do it more publicly. Its like racism, and how some people think U.S is the most racist due to media and social media, its actually very far from that on the general scale of things when compared to other countries.

In Australia I knew I guy who was a SovCit and he would do stupid things like quote the bill of rights. We’d say “what bill of rights?” Australia doesn’t have one. All his info came from the US and he just followed it with realising none of it was relevant in a different country.

To be fair pretty much all the US sovcit stuff isn’t relevant or applicable in the US either

True. But things like the UCC are real laws. Covcits just hilariously misinterpret them. There is no such law in other countries. Plus sovcit stuff is based on common law. It makes even less sense in civil law jurisdictions.

I did expect Australian and British sovcits, but didn’t expect Greek ones.

Were they one of the lost idiots waving a Trump flag during the Victoria lockdown protests? I still cringe to this day.

carl_dungeon ,

None of it is relevant in the USA either, it’s all bullshit.

Hikermick ,

It’s nice to know America doesn’t have ALL the idiots

Elextra ,

I always wonder where and how these crazy sovcits are after all this time. October 2023 is quite a long time ago. Like I wonder if they’re homeless, if they ever got back on their feet after everything they do fails.

Let me make sure I follow what happened here… He got a bunch of paperwork he presumably needed to sign in several places? Instead of doing that he put a postage stamp (?) on top of the pile and “signed across” it?

Am I reading that correctly?

BonesOfTheMoon OP ,

So it would seem. What that means in sovcit land I know not.

I’m still trying to wrap my head around this apparent notion that signing a stamp is supposed to have some official function lol I’m assuming it’s something he dreamt after a particularly large meal

DynoNoob ,

I found an article that explains the stamp thing. And it’s just as stupid as you’d expect it to be.

At least the Discordians were harmless.

Well, mostly. Some are dire.

This is just embarrassing.

Harmless until they start rolling out golden apples. :)

I don’t authorize you to close the account.

We are the bank. We don’t authorize you to bank with us.

I don’t know what they think their next move is. It seems pretty clear to me that the bank has won. Anyway…

pelletbucket ,

can we trick them all into going the same place

Are they asking a trick question?
