      I mean it’s a pretty standard and very brief summary of political power dynamics so I guess someone somewhere in the sov cit movement has probably said something like that at some point. Fascists, liberals, communists, anarchists, and whatever other politocal ideology you can think of has stated this in some fashion. It’s extremely basic political theory

          Theory isn’t going to get you out of your DUI. It’s a framework for building and applying ideologies. Spend 5 minutes in a pol sci 101 class and you’ll probably hear it there too. Sov cits are wack as shit and have more in common with classic liberalism, mercantilism and methamphetamine induced psychosis than they do any serious political framework. Their entire argument is based on British common law and archaic maritime laws lol

                I was agreeing with you that it’s not going to get you out of DUI, which I thought was a foregone conclusion
