      “Empress” Verdiacee “Tiari” Washitaw-Turner Goston El-Bey of the Washitaw de Dugdahmoundyah (the article missed aa few of her names or self proclaimed honorifics). Now thats a name I haven’t heard in probably two decades(and one she continued to add onto and embellish throughout her life), but reading the article immediately made me remember just how absolutely batshit crazy she was. I grew up in Northeast Louisiana and remember her stirring up problems at various civic meetings for years. I can’t believe anybody would ever take anything she said as serious, because she was so clearly mentally ill that even as a kid I picked up on it. But somehow they did, and she even led a movement for the “town” of richwood to secede from the city of Monroe, taking with it a good portion of the more densely populated areas but almost none of the tax base to support the basic civic infrastructure. You can probably figure out how the next two decades plus looked for residents there.

      Point of contention: just because they’re not recognized doesn’t mean they don’t exist, clearly they do, and if they officiate their own documents as well this is a bit different than SovCits I think about, this sounds like a group of people attempting to assert rights that aren’t recognized which is a little less unhinged.

    Genus means grammatical gender. He is telling us his pronouns and I’m with him on this. Saying “my grammatical gender is masculine” makes a lot more sense than saying “my pronouns are he/him”. Like, who’s going to mix pronouns?

    His grammatical gender is masculine and his hat gender is fabulous. That’s the highest fez I’ve ever seen and the longest tassel. Well played, Sir.

      Actually I work with someone who is she/they.

        Does that literally means use she and they in each appropriate context? I’ve always interpreted that as meaning they’re ok with one set of gendered pronouns and/or neutral pronouns, not that you’re expected to contort pronoun use to neutral only in specific cases.

          I’m not sure, they just wear a button on their lanyard that says that. So I refer to them as such. Hell, I don’t care, call me whatever.

          she/they here, it means pick one. on the rare occasion you meet someone who has “rules” like that they’ll usually let you know what to call them when.

        Yeah, but it’s she/they and not she/them. No mixing.

        Context dependent gender also makes a lot of sense to me. Call me masculine if my sex is important to you. Wiggles eyebrows.

    Why blank his “passport” number? It’s not like made up shit can be used to steal his identity.

    Why are so many of these fuckers from Michigan? Most of the YouTube videos of these yahoos in court are Michigan. Is it like residual brain damage from the air by the car factories?

      It’s true a lot of them come from there. One abducted her own kids from a child protective services visit even.

    That’s pretty close to a real looking ID, so either it is a real one (native American tribes are self governing and can issue their own ID’s) or it’s a forgery and that’s a really big crime to forge official government documents (most sovcit’s don’t get this charge because what they have is usually so obviously bad no one would think it’s real).

      Nope, there is no such tribe and never was. This is a grift and it’s very popular. Steal the name of the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma, for example, add some gibberish and attempt to get federal funds designated for real tribes. It actually hurts real tribal citizens with real IDs, because they get rejected by jaded, ignorant bank employees who have encountered the fake bullshit too many times. You know how else to tune in your bullshit meter? He’a wearing a hat. You can’t wear a hat in a photo for any type of ID. Not tribal, not federal.

        That makes it a federal crime, I would love to see the body cam footage if they ever showed that to a cop.
