    It’s an interesting intersection between a sense of entitlement, thinking legalese is like magic spells where if you use the right words you get what you want, and police/government overreach plus late stage capitalism making people think they need something like that to get what they feel they are entitled to.

      I am someone who politically thinks all our needs should be met because we pay taxes. My motto is give everybody everything, to quote the poet Bernadette Meyer. But sovcits just have very strange ideas.
