Yeah, there’s a growing subculture of people, not just in USA, that have fallen for an internet scam claiming to have found “loopholes” in the law. Generally, it involves not having legal plates on your car, registration, not paying child support or taxes, driving without a license, etc etc etc.
They theory goes that if you just “educate” yourself on constitutional, maritime, and wartime law, you can catch police and judges in a “gotcha, checkmate” situation and they’ll be powerless to do anything to you.
Sadly, there is a big overlap with SovCits, flat-earthers, right wing maga types, ancient alien conspiracy types, Neo-nazis/klan types, the mentally ill, and the poor and uneducated. They tend to be a group of people that dont have much in life and are susceptible to the idea that there is “one easy trick they don’t want you to know” type of cheat code to get ahead in life and leave problems behind.
Toxic relationship that ended and now she’s asking for child support? I’ll just become an independent nation that doesn’t recognize that law. Can’t afford car payment and the bank is trying to repossess? I’ll just make up some bank docs that “dismiss” the loan. Silly stuff like that.
There is a group of hucksters that prey on these people, they make YouTube channels, sell books, run seminars, etc etc etc to squeeze money from them while leaving these poor gullible sops running around being pedantic about the difference between “driving” and “traveling” as defined by some 18th century cattle rancher.
