    I think it’s a combination of a few things…

    1. It’s nearly impossible to REALLY get ahead these days. Everyone seems to be just keeping their heads above water, so people are getting desperate. They’ve run out of good answers to their problems

    2. They see a lot of people cheating each other and want to cheat the system themselves

    3. It uses legalese that they don’t really understand, but they think they do and it makes them feel powerful to understand something you don’t

    4. See point one. They don’t have legal options to solve their problems.

      Let’s not forget that there are grifters out there selling this information. They’re cheating people.

      I like to make fun of SovCits, especially the true believers. We just can’t forget that, even though they’re shitbags who want all the benefits of society with no responsibility, they’re still victims of even bigger shitbags.

        I mean the ones that end up on YouTube are shitbags, But I’m not certain that all of the rest are shitbags…… to be seen?
