I had to pause reading and make sure that this was represented in the comments. Carrying on.

I'm trying to follow what is actually going on here... Did the sovcit person make fake prepaid return envelopes to avoid paying postage? I swear it seems like these people rely on just creating as much confusion as possible so that people will eventually just give up because it's easier than trying to reason with them...

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 12 points 10 months ago

That is correct.

Seems like they figure if they can con the postal service worker to get the mail past the first goalie then it'll end up wherever it needs to end up. I read down the rabbit hole and there is some crazy interpretations of you as the sender act as some independent entity with a population of 1 so you qualify for the source of this non postage mail item. I'm tired now.

Yelling "notice of liability" is the new "pinch, poke you owe me a Coke".

[-] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 17 points 10 months ago

Michael, you can't just say "notice of liability" and expect anything to happen.

I didn't say it, I declared it.

A SovCit Karen. It's the overlap of the Venn Diagram.

742 Stamps Not Affixed

742.1 Marking

Some items of foreign origin do not bear postage stamps, but instead are marked "POSTAGE PAID," "ON POSTAL SERVICE," "SERVICE DES POSTES," "TAXE PERCUE" or "TP," or "PORT PAYE" or "PP," followed by postmark. The marking On Her Majesty's Service or O.H.M.S. is also sometimes used. Treat this mail as prepaid.

Kind of a logic to it if you think yourself to be sovereign.

Sounds like the're working for way below minimum wage. It's not worth your time if it takes more then 3 minutes to save 50 cents.

[-] Shameless@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

Do Sovcit people think that they can just go through life paying for nothing??

I know they have this "secret bank account" idea that they government or something has x millions of $ or something. But it just sounds like they all think they can coast by not paying for anything and people should just accept this?

I understand there is no logic behind it, I'm just constantly baffled that people can think this way and also have the energy to constantly act in such a way.

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

And they devote so much effort to this madness!

[-] gedaliyah@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Has the same energy as "I DECLARE... BANKRUPTCY!"
