    They usually try and submit the “coupon”, or another form of magical paperwork called a 1099A, which is an acquisition of property form for federal taxes, which sovcits think somehow pays for things by accessing the secret bank account worth 2 million dollars that the government sets up in your name when you are born. This is a sovcit belief.

      You know you’re off the reservation when one of the core beliefs of your system is that the government just “gives” everyone $2M for being born. Even if you add the part where you have to use the magic crazy talk to access that money, it would just make more sense for the government to keep that money for themselves rather than set up whatever nonsense they think this is.

        Shouldn’t say off the rez any more.

        That phrase refers to the historical bad treatment native Americans would experience, if caught “off the reservation” by police. Often including beatings and killings

          Kind of.

          In this context saying someone is “off the reservation” means that all Natives were stupid/crazy or uneducated. So if someone did something stupid, it meant they were acting like a Native from a reservation. Like how someone might say “hood”, “ghetto”, or more recently “huddy”.

          In some context “you’re off the reservation” was a veiled threat to Natives meaning they have no protection and will likely be assaulted if they kept acting “uppity”.

          Just not how it was just used in the comment you replied to.

          I hate how every bit of American slang has some awful racist or misogynistic entomology. Makes me disrespect people who say “SPEAK AMERICAN” even more.

          (I mean, not that the English don’t have their fair share…)
