Not really. Occasionally I see someone in the comments saying that they can't reach the person they've been paying to teach them their crazy ways anymore, or that they can't find anyone who has made the coupon process work, but beyond that they seem to just persist in their crazy.

IMO if/when people snap out of it they just fade away and don't post about it. We all have our pride. These people were convinced they were so much smarter than everyone else, that's a tough pill to swallow. The same thing happens with cults and political beliefs. That's why I try to keep things light hearted and civil when debating politics. Leave wiggle room for people to come around. It's not about humiliating them, it's about seeing the light

I was actually sitting here wondering the same thing. There’s plenty of evidence that none of this works yet they keep truckin’ along.

Exactly what I was going to say. They go all-in on the Sovereign Citizen nonsense, it fails massively for them, multiple times, every single official response is "that's not a thing", so they... continue to ask the sovcit community for more advice!? Like, come on...

I have seen a news report where they interviewed a young woman who was in a whole bunch of debt due to being sovcit and regretted it all. Her story was she was basically living a normal life, till her husband lost his job. When he couldn't find a new job and was living on welfare, he turned to sovcit. They could simply stop paying their mortgage and other bills and use all the tricks of the sovcits on Facebook to get by. This way he wouldn't need a job anymore. His wife went along with it, not really understanding it, but trusting her husband.

Obviously this didn't end up well for either of them and the wife divorced the husband after finding out all of it was bullshit. They lost their home and had huge debts. Luckily because the woman was in a European country, the government sent someone to help her out. They helped her to consolidate all the different loans into a single loan, except for debts in relation to taxes. For the taxes a generous payment plan was provided, giving the woman a chance at a normal life instead of destroying her. The singular loan with the bank had a mortgage style payment plan, which was manageable even at a relatively low income level. She also was eligible for public housing and had a small apartment to live in. It was unclear where the husband was, he was gone and assumed out of the country. Because they were married he left a lot of the debt for the wife to clean up.

It was really a very sad story and the woman was filled with regret. If she hadn't lived in a forgiving country, she would have had a bad ending. Not that she didn't have one anyway, but it could have been so much worse.

Hard to post from prison after all your stuff has been seized by the state.

By the time you fall for this kind of nonsense, you already have to be well and truly beyond redemption.
