I just think of them as a cult. Nothing makes sense, nothing is supposed to. I just watch them on YouTube, usually in court, and laugh.

Watching them in court is like the first time watching The Office and feeling crushed by awkward embarrassment on behalf of someone who’s oblivious to it.

I think so too, although none of them have one single goal like other cults.

No one seems to understand what I am requesting

Not shocked

I legit saw a neuron misfire there.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon 8 points 4 months ago (1 children)

They're always so surprised.

That’s why I love these posts. “Hey girliepops, I tried the thing that confused everyone and now I’m doubling down. This is the right thing to do, right?” Taser crackles.

They have not one iota of humour in them. It's amazing really.

Is this a follow on from the previous post about certified mail? They were threatening to file a .. petition of remonstrance?

[–] BonesOfTheMoon 8 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Not a follow, but yes they were. They are super crazy. All to send mail for free

The posts are from 2019 and 2020. Are they still at it? Because they sound like an HCA candidate.

I didn’t notice the date 🤦‍♀️ good point!

They did post a video of the postal clerk flipping them off but then they left the group.

I wonder what's the turn-over rate in that sub? Like, what's the average lifespan of someone who gets sucked into this, gets screwed over and their car repossessed or whatever, and eventually give up? Sure, there must be persistent crazy, but it'd be interesting to know how many durable individual cult followers are.

Like most cult members, they dig in deeper and fall further down the conspiracy rabbit hole. Think deranged having a stroke posts that show up on this community regularly.

Occasionally I'll see one who has left the group and I assume they are fed up with this nonsense, but most of them doggedly adhere to it.
