    In this video I take a look at the growing sovereign citizen movement around the world, in countries such as America, Canada, the UK, Ireland, Germany, Australia and New Zealand - and the similarities and differences between them all. I also discuss the history of law and order and how it developed in commonwealth countries and the US through the Magna Carta and the Bill of Rights and the constitution. I also investigate the psychology behind the movement, who's making money from it, and why it's been so successful - and even delve into some philosophical musings around law and order itself. OoOoOoh.

      you misunderstand alchemy, the layman understood alchemy to be literal and the charlatan took advantage of that
      it is all allegory and energy, the metals also stand for concepts beyond themselves
      but that doesn't really take away from your script just saying, look up KEMETIC alchemy, the ancient alchemical teachings that were bastardized to trick people into disregarding ancient teachings by making intentionally undereducated people take things to be literal and stop thinking in multiple dimensions.
      It's not bullshit. No, we cannot turn real lead into real gold. If you look into some of Carl Jung's work beyond what they added to Academia you will see it is about growing our internal gold. A true alchemist is their own philosophers stone. The people who actually understood and made use of the knowledge fucking buried it beneath the rubble of civilizations and smeared and twisted the teachings just like they did with those of christ. Christ's walking on water was alchemical allegory. Water representing the mind in alchemy. The mind representing the universe. As hermeticists state "The All is mind." To walk on water is to calm the raging churning waters of the mind and walk on that serene surface where balance and love is to be found. You'll note that jesus had to send away the "unwashed" (unwashed by the waters of the universal mind) masses away before he could ever "walk on water." The man was walking around teaching true alchemy and he was put to death and they twisted it all. We love you Mune, thanks for what you do my wife and I loved watching this. Theurgy ties all of these together to make "as above, so below" come to life. Just trying to share with the soul fam. We love everything you do thanks for the discount code!

      I mean, most constitutional rights do indeed apply to non citizens? Basically the entire bill of rights (except the second amendment, either at all or at least in practice) applies to non citizens, as does the 13th amendment (as slaves were not generally made citizens until the 14th, it must be taken that the 13th amendment protects non citizens from being held as slaves except in punishment for a crime), as do the due process and equal protection clauses of the 14th amendment (which refer to persons, not to citizens)… so, what they’re saying isn’t a contradiction between two statements, it’s just that the first statement is fully incorrect, as everyone, whether citizen, documented immigrant, or undocumented immigrant, can be compelled to follow the law and face the consequences of breaking it. And their specific interpretation of the meaning of the second statement is probably also going to be wrong in the circumstances they say it in, but saying that non citizens have constitutional rights is 100% correct.

      ​​@@KarlSnarksecause the Jewish question is the original conspiracy theory in european/western culture. And conspiracy theories thrives by being tied together to other theories. So anti semitism is like 5he ground zero where all conspiracies are spun off from. Anti semitism goes all the way back to when Christianity was being spread, and Europe has oppressed Jews for hundreds of years.
      During the reformation where protistantism was breaking of catholosiscm, conspiracy theories about Jews being evil was widespread. The crusades were also motivated by anti semitism. Every big war or even in Europe has had the Jewish question sprinkled throughout to smaller or larger extend, with of course nazism being the msot extreme with the final solution.

    I think Dan Olson's "jar" explanation is a great way to understand conspiracy mindsets like Sovereign Citizens.

      these are the kinds of mental gymnastics that you _have_ to perform in order to make any of this nonsense even begin to seem to have the appearance of resembling anything approaching logical consistency. i recently saw some conspiracy quacks (can't even remember the specific conspiracy. could have been some syncretic "flat earth" thing, but there was _a lot_ going on besides) arguing that the evidence of the "illuminati" existing is: works of fiction including (fictional) representations of the "illuminati", because… they're obliged by some magical power to "drop hints" about their existence (that the "sheeple" will never notice, of course) in order to maintain their secrecy and control. some people are so far gone, i really wonder if there's _anything_ that could be said or shown to them that might cause them to consider the idea that their fringe beliefs could even _possibly_ be complete horseshit.

    Until I saw "I don't know your gender, I'm not going to assume that" and "Why are you a dickhead". I thought the best SC vs Police interaction was a small town cop dealing with a guy by playing his own SovCit 'card'. "I get where you coming from, but you've got to understand my position. I'm working the inside." I can't even begin to repeat his verbiage and do it any justice. He got the guy to accept a ticket, hands it to the guy and tells him three documents to take to court with him. If I remember right the cop ended with. "You have a good day. Power to the people." Walks back to the car, his partner is standing between the patrol car and the SovCit's car. Looks at his partner and says "Judge Cary is gonna eat that guy for lunch."

      Indeed. Government is a protection racket with a monopoly on the use of force to maintain itself.

You're guaranteed to ultimately lose any confrontation with them using force in the long run unless you're extremely lucky, in a foreign country, and have a vast network of support and hidden resources available to you to wait them out.
      That worked for the Taliban, sure, but the average SovCit isn't as trained, prepared or determined to pull it off, and it's not going to be nearly as successful as when it's on foreign soil in a region that is literally known for being the graveyard of empires.

    Someone I used to work with got completely sucked into the SovCit bs. A lot of the explanations in this video give me flashbacks of conversations we had with him on the job. The 'understand' one really hit home. The worse thing is the community is extremely toxic. You either nod and ask 'only the right questions' or you're immediately bullied/ridiculed out of the community. It's got some kind of cult vibe to it. At least that's the feeling I got when I first encountered this madness some 15 years ago.
    After doing some useless investigation on my own. I realized that they really wanted to enshrine certain outdated definitions of words. Like 'driver'. There is some seed of truth in their ramblings, but it's mainly that words evolve over time, and laws adapt to the changing vernacular of the times. IE, not a conspiracy.

Geez, there is a lot of contradictory ideas there", because by principle, you are bound to find basically everything under the sun in this "half" (discounting the neutral elements here for the sake of simplicity), some people will be indeed inconsistent, but how much of that general impression comes from the fact that you have clumped together both Libertarians, Religious conservatives, Ancap, Natsoc and everything in between ? You could also do the same with the left and see the same type of inconsistency once you clump together social democrats, Leninists and Ancom.

      When conservatives talk about being small government, they mean they want to cut taxes, regulations, and social programs. But they broadly support big government in other ways like having a strict legal system with harsh punishments and spending big on military. Many also want to legislate morality in people’s personal lives by banning things like abortion or gay marriage. So both ideologies support big government, but in different ways.

So they turn all their ire toward government, not realizing that corporate America and capitalism are really 'the man' that's holding them down.
      We need to get these people to realize what really controls their life. Is it the government forcing them to spend their time doing things they don't want or is it capitalism requiring them to work for too little pay at jobs they hate just to squeak by month to month?

But if someone is described as "lumbering," then you get a very different idea about them.

      Not conspiracy theory, if you where born between 1933 and 1975 an estate was created for 600,000 in us savings bonds. And was insured for 1 million. After that the amounts where raised. They managed these accounts and hypothicated them. On average they grew by 40 percent a year. The sham courts are after these accounts. The police create a cause, the cause creates a case, the case creates a bond that is sold out the back door of the courthouse. All judges and attorneys are bankers, look up their international securities license number. Each case also has a penal sum, that is collected from your trust. When you are indicted, the court files f 273 form with the department of fiscal services, this is a liquidation bond. Remember your estate is held in treasury bonds so they need to be liquidated. When your court date arrives the court files a f274 form with the department of fiscal services, this is a performance bond, informing them you have been found guilty and will need to perform. Next the court files f275 this is a money transfer from your estate to the court.

    The German "Reichsbürger" are especially fixated on the German word for "identity card", "Personalausweis". The word translated literally means "personal details card", but in German "Personal" also means "personnel", so they are convinced that every citizen of Germany is actually "personnel" of the "Germany Inc." private company.

Lemme tell you, this then turned into a four-month delay in his application as it went progressively further up the chain until there was a brief email directly from the deputy director saying "we will not accept this, he will need to re-sign the form", at which point I got to have a very cool phone call with him that basically went "I'm not changing my signature!" and I was like, "cool, we will be terminating your application" and then I did.

    It's funny in retrospect but it's also extremely sad because A LOT of these guys were Black men of various ages who had been victimized by the state their entire lives, and found a great deal of satisfaction in thinking they had finally figured it all out when in fact they were simply making themselves easier to oppress through self-imposed ignorance

    Unironically in the US not talking to police without a lawyer, explicitly not consenting to any searches, and having police confirm that you are being detained is good advice purely because your right to a lawyer and your protection from unreasonable searches, seizures, and detainments are rights that in many cases have to be invoked rather than being assumed. They don't give you magical powers and police absolutely will perform whatever actions they feel like they can get away with, but in a court of law they can provide you with real defenses in some circumstances.
