I’m really exhausted with this sovereign citizen crap, but when the government is trying to accrue more powers its worthwhile asking what else can be done with it.
For a prescient example: my mother welcomed policies that made protesting more-or-less illegal. “Just Stop Oil” had been doing a lot of nuisance things and she felt it justified. As did the right wing.
Now, when the far-right started marching[0] she was horrified to learn the extent of the new powers and said it was orwellian.
I use her as an example because I think HN leans left, but it will be the right wing folks who dislike government most. Obviously as a left winger myself- when the right wing government was installing anti-protest measures I was horrified, and was much more keen to point out they it could be used against people like my mum.
The government aren’t your friends, they are either changable- meaning all rules have to be solid enough to be used fairly even if the ruling party changes a lot, or: you’re living in something other than democracy, which is largely considered bad.
