Dude I really want to say thank you for getting this group really running, and more importantly, letting it be really crazy people and not just ' My uncle said something pro Trump' like the last one devolved into

[-] thantik@lemmy.world 110 points 9 months ago

I mean, people saying things pro trump are crazy, we've all just kind of acclimated to it, sadly.

[-] Arbiter@lemmy.world 34 points 9 months ago

Mainstream crazy is booring.

[-] Brunbrun6766@lemmy.world 20 points 9 months ago

Yeah I want ADVANCED crazy

[-] Fuck_u_spez_@sh.itjust.works 10 points 9 months ago

IDK man, did you watch any of Jordan Klepper's coverage of Trump events over the last several years? Most of the highlights for me land somewhere between unbelievably batshit crazy and herniatingly hilarious.

True but it got old. And more importantly half the posts that ended up as the top post of the day there were just... Yay Trump. Not any kind of fun crazy like rambling on about that worm medicine or whatever the fuck it was.

I want fun to read crazy like this. Not crazy that reminds me of reality lol

[-] lars@lemmy.sdf.org 8 points 9 months ago

Exactly this.

The other night I burst out laughing when I remembered Giuliani’s 2020 press conference at the Four Seasons Philadelphia. Doofuses saw “Four Seasons” in probably an ancient paper phonebook and thought it was going to be the upmarket hotel or the upmarket restaurant.

Cut to America’s Mayor in front of a green warehouse run by Four Seasons Total Landscaping.

They could not have tried something this audacious on Veep let alone House of Cards. It would not have been believable.

On the other hand, then, everything wild, unlikely, overwrought, and ethically appalling in Veep and House of Cards is now within plausibility and reminds me too much of reality.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

We've gone past 'plausibility.' The lead character in House of Cards clandestinely commits murder in the first season. We have a former president and possible future president who brags that he could murder someone and get away with it.

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 50 points 9 months ago

You're most welcome! I'm glad people are enjoying.

Facebook to me is terrible as a social media site but is also like a wonderful diary full of gossip and trash and crazy that I read like a novel. The things people will post about themselves publicly under their real name will never cease to amaze me.

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

Awww also I love that you think I'm a dude.

[-] MilitantAtheist@lemmy.world 9 points 9 months ago

You have to be, there are no dudettes on the internet.

I would love a community dedicated to sovcit nonsense. (could be this one under a new name)

[-] mateomaui@reddthat.com 31 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

I like how they get the officer to write down his name and badge number, supposedly to do something with it involving laws.

[-] Red_October@lemmy.world 11 points 9 months ago

The things SovCits do resemble laws less than they do occult magic spells. They just replace crystals with their at-home embosser and official-looking stamp. The rest is all gibberish.

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 30 points 9 months ago

The amount of human stupidity is simply amazing.

[-] someguy3@lemmy.world 27 points 9 months ago

Warrants in four countries you say.

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 41 points 9 months ago

Later she faced felony charges by acting as a lawyer in court for some other sovcit.

[-] NounsAndWords@lemmy.world 15 points 9 months ago

Did she remember to file the proper disenfelony paperwork?

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 11 points 9 months ago

Sadly she did not but she's still shilling..

[-] theodewere@kbin.social 8 points 9 months ago

she goes around liberating property from capitalist aggressors

[-] Aux@lemmy.world 15 points 9 months ago

Oh, so a lemmy.ml user...

[-] Fades@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

It says counties

[-] BoiLudens@lemmy.world 21 points 9 months ago

Ah, I’m down for more sovcit content

[-] VindictiveJudge@lemmy.world 20 points 9 months ago

Is this the same guy that posted their World Passport they wanted to use to avoid child support payments a couple days ago? Or is this a different lunatic with a fake passport?

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 36 points 9 months ago

This is a different lunatic. This particular lunatic later pretended to be a lawyer in court for another sovcit and now has felony charges.

[-] BaroqueInMind@lemmy.one 18 points 9 months ago

It's one dude contributing content to this community page like Atlas holding up the earth.

[-] VindictiveJudge@lemmy.world 10 points 9 months ago

I know the lemmy poster is the same, I just don't know if the insane poster is the same.

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 10 points 9 months ago
[-] FlihpFlorp@lemm.ee 8 points 9 months ago

I mean he’s not wrong

Plus these SovCit posts have been very entertaining so thank you

Oh, they were lucky? Is that what they were?

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 28 points 9 months ago

It's amazing to me that there are adults that are so sheltered, that they don't understand how badly the government can fuck you up, and the cold, methodical, manner in which it will do it.

[-] dynamojoe@lemmy.world 22 points 9 months ago

and the cold, methodical, manner in which it will do it.

Your day in court is a very important day. You plan, sweat, panic, reassure yourself, panic again, and go through the five stages of grief all out of order before it arrives. For the prosecutor, it's Tuesday. They are more worried about their vitamin C intake than what some rando on the docket might bring.

[-] jpreston2005@lemmy.world 9 points 9 months ago

cold, methodical, manner

This is a harsh wake-up call for a lot of people. I think most people have had the experience of being a nice, courteous person enough that some business or official bends the rules for you.

"Oh, You filed document E-24 instead of E-24 Sub 1? Don't worry about it, here's the form you need, just take a moment and fill it out now"

Speaking as a white male born to privilege, it happened often enough that I figured that's the way the whole world works. Don't expect anyone to break or bend any rules for you, but if you're respectful, kind, and courteous, they may cut you some slack.

But oh boy, I was not prepared for that harsh reality of dealing with the justice system. There's no slack, there's no "oopsie-daisys," and if you're late/without the paperwork, you're fucked EXTRA hard. There's no empathy, they don't treat you like a person anymore, but as an "offender." And once you've earned that moniker in the court systems eyes, you're no longer deemed worthy of help or consideration.

when it comes to the american justice system, the cruelty is the point.

[-] Doorbook@lemmy.world 9 points 9 months ago

Wait, is someone selling these passports?

[-] circuitfarmer@lemmy.sdf.org 20 points 9 months ago

I've seen "pub crawl passports", where the intention is you get a stamp at every pub in town. I'm sure they work just as well in this application.

Sir i can assure you by the witness of 15 barmen, that i drank 30 pints in one night and since am known in the country up and down as 30 pint Joe Miller.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago

I couldn't imagine an easier group to grift from than SovCits except maybe evangelicals (and sometimes both intersect), so very probably.

I'm finding myself on this community more and more, thanks for keeping up the content!

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

I have literally hundreds of these lol.

[-] carl_dungeon@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

And what happened next!?!?

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 18 points 9 months ago
[-] TheFriar@lemm.ee 6 points 9 months ago
[-] carl_dungeon@lemmy.world 5 points 9 months ago

That’s satisfying, thanks!

[-] ethans1@lemm.ee 4 points 9 months ago

So she kept digging is what I'm hearing.
