Leaving your house without your papers and government issued ID.

[–] monogram@feddit.nl 12 points 1 day ago (2 children)

In the Netherlands that's already a thing for anyone aged 14 and up

[–] Auli@lemmy.ca 2 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Really so if your walking your dog you need your ID?

[–] monogram@feddit.nl 1 points 4 hours ago

Not exactly, there are some requirements but if they’re met (you commit an offense, or in high suspicion, e-bike controls), and you can’t show ID it’s a fine

But essentially yes

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 0 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

And it hurts absolutely nobody.

Turns out, the problem isn't carrying ID, the problem is US cops.

[–] monogram@feddit.nl 1 points 4 hours ago

Lots of butt hurt Americans downvoting here

I don't usually like SovCits, but like maybe we should really start popularizing SovCit movements. 🤔

[–] MintyFresh@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I always had some sympathy with them. It just seems like they want off this awful capitalistic treadmill we find ourselves on. Everyone always laughs and belittles them, but I'm always rooting for em just a lil bit

[–] Echinoderm@aussie.zone 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

SovCits are not noble campaigners fighting against injustice. They are idiots deluded enough to think they've found the cheat code to the legal system by spouting the right string of nonsense.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 1 points 10 hours ago

They're desperate and aware there's something wrong with the system they're in, without having the education or experience to realize that the people running it don't actually care about the rules.

If they went and lived in some remote mountain village or something I wouldn't mind.

But they claim all of this while driving without a licence or insurance. Would you be as sympathetic to their cause if they hit your car and cause serious damage?

I sort of understand their point but they've also been unimaginably selfish and entitled and that's the part I can't get behind. Also every single one of them is, without fail, an utter moron.

[–] ArtVandelay@lemmy.world 4 points 19 hours ago

Don't forget a huge part of the movement is people trying to evade child support

[–] bhamlin@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Or, you know, just being alive without them.
