    I think this goes beyond normal SovCit stupid and into legitimate mental illness territory.

          Both delusional psychosis and manic episodes are symptoms of schizophrenia

            They also could be symptoms of something other than schizophrenia. I’m not saying it isn’t caused by schizophrenia, I’m saying we can’t know what the cause is from just this image

              But we can make an educated guess, and it’s entirely likely that they have schizophrenia.

    • The special terminology reads like Black Nationalist sectarian beliefs of some sort (think Rastafarianism or the Nation Of Islam or some similar sect); they’re very much into changing the spelling of common words to fit them into ritual affirmations

    So I did a little searching and this person has a website called SPC University. Last copyright is 2024.

    Don’t worry, if your immediate thought is it’s probably a scam site, rest assured, he only charges $69 for membership and then you can download all of the wonderful courses about everything you’d expect.

    Personally I enjoy all of the courses under “Admiralty”, and of course “Traveling”

    Edit: Oh shit, the PDFs are actually downloadable for free lol

    Edit 2: oh no it gets better. He’s scanned books he’s taken out of the library.

      Yes that’s what this Facebook group is, based on the guru Yusef El and his scams. They’re always posting that for some reason they paid their money to sign up for SPC University and are for some reason now not able to login.

    What an idiot, placarding that item with traveling plates. They should convey that device to the nearest body of water. While part of the device is in contact with the water, they can re-placard it as a maritime vessel. Such vessels are not limited to non-commercial use, and, most importantly, may be portaged overland while remaining a maritime vessel.

      Hahahaha yeah, great take. Of course a portage typically requires picking up the device and carrying it to the next body of water … perhaps using a trolley and horses, which are exempt from road laws, and most… roads

        I used to portage my canoe on a small trailer behind my bike. I would then load the bike and trailer into the canoe, and float downriver. When I pull that so-loaded canoe out of the water, does it stop being a maritime vessel?

        This Buick-manufactured device could be considered a maritime vessel that just so happens to be carrying the mechanisms necessary for self-portage. And I’d be happy to sell you the placards needed for that.

          Do you have a bike trailer big enough to load it into as well?

    When I was young, and far more temperamental, shit like this is why I said I could never be a cop. Imagine pulling this idiot over for a routine stop, for obvious reasons. And then getting a face full of insane argument.

    “Step out of the car or I’m taking my nightstick, bashing all the windows and headlights, then I will remove you from the car. And have it towed to impound. While you’re in jail.”

    I watched SovCit YouTube videos for an evening and the cops and judges were insanely nice to these people. I couldn’t handle it.

      I mean sovcits shoot cops so I understand them not wanting to die because of a traffic stop. But yeah a cop could be way more aggressive and simply yank them out and arrest them without batting an eye and everyone would be ok with that.

      Ive learned that when dealing with people that already have a list of things to throw at you, it’s best to be very nice, listen, and then firmly yet kindly tell them how things work. Being “by the book” is a great way to shut karens like that down. Sometimes it’s a not too long of a process, and sometimes it’s a very long process.

      That’s what i think cops are doing when theyre insanely nice to sovcits.

    I was ready to just shake my head at some idiocy, until they equated following rules with slavery. Mental illness or no, whoever this is can go fuck themselves. A LOT of those rules exist for the safety of themselves and others - and I’m not even going to ask if this selfish prick has any insurance.

    Then again, who am I to question the will of a god?

    I like that schizophrenic word salad episode they had there in the middle. Very amusing.
