      I don’t think sov civs actually have a problem with rules or authority. I think they are deeply insecure in the fact that they don’t understand the rules so they make up new ones that they believe to be absolute and above all else.

      They believe like dogma in this shit like the maritime flag with stripes and a court with that flag gets magically invalidated so they don’t have to follow any rulings. They get a feeling of control when they understand the rules even when the rules are imaginary.

      Personally I have found authority in America to be stupid, abusive, incompetent or all 3. Do you live somewhere else?

          I don’t need a system of law not to shoot people or walk out without paying. Some of us have ethics. I have found authority in America broadly garbage from bottom to top. It’s not just the top that is fucked.

      Honestly we would all be better off if we had somewhere we could deport these people to. Fascists to Russia, communists to Venezuela, sovcits to Somalia.
