There’s plenty of info about them out there on social media. They’re definitely assholes.

It's a flavor of conspiracy weirdo who claim they can just declare themselves exempt from state and federal law, often based on some misreading of old treaties where they claim the United States is actually a corporation and they choose not to be a customer or something.

It actually is a huge honor that Jersey City is going to be the new home of this museum. Contrary to what many people here seem to believe, art and culture are a very important aspect of society, especially cities. Museums enrich communities and boost economies through tourism, which is good for boosting small businesses

This happened to me when I moved. They gave me a number with the signs. I called the number. Parking authority came out quickly and was getting ready to tow the car when the guy came running down the street and moved his car

Yeah I'm agreeing since our rent was raised specifically because taxes increased, but it wasn't 10%. I think it was closer to 4-5% for us, but we rent from the owner directly and she lives next door and so her expenses also increased, etc. No increase last year, been living in this particular rental for about 2 years now.

The city openly courted this demographic ( “Make it Yours!” ) and now the solution is more luxury rental buildings to “fix the problem”.

Funny how that works.

Was there a point to this comment? Like, should it be surprising that rents have risen from 2019 to 2023?

Rents are significantly higher now than they were before COVID.

I have lived nearby with my family for the last 3 years and consider it rather safe. It’s still an urban area so just be aware of your surroundings. It’s an 11min walk to groove street path. I prefer to walk on side streets as it’s more peaceful than Newark ave.

Having lived downtown for 8 years, this is a part of downtown that is still “improving.” There are lot of condos going up that are leading to more storefronts and restaurants. There are a number of permanent families with young kids in the area. Other areas of dtjc feels like a short-term stop for young families. Gentrification has its positive and negatives, but this area does have a sense of community. The traffic could be bad on some of the streets at rush hour, I would suggest checking it out on Fridays around 5 to see if it bothers you.

To sum it up: just an asshole.

PRIVATE PILE, what in the fuck is this?!

Why do they use a Z on it? Is it also a Putin supporting move regarding the Russian Invasion of Ukraine?

Sovereign Citizen. They try to claim that the laws don’t apply to them. Something about that they didn’t personally specifically allow each and every one of them.

What’s a sovereign citizen?

By politically connected developer, do you mean Silverman?

I spoke with the artist while he was painting it, he seemed like a cool guy. I heard they painted over it because it portrayed cops as pigs and a kid of color in jail - something or other about negative stereotypes.

Stupid Life Pro Tip: If you see one of these people, make sure to get in to an accident with them. That way you can have the police come and ticket and tow them for not having registration, plates, or insurance. Then sue them so you get additional entertainment when you go to court.

And master sup!

Why would a sovereign citizen have even a fake NY plate like this?

r/amibeingdetained has some great videos of these morons

Sometimes peoples’ beliefs are easy to misguide because they’re assholes

So I've lived here for almost 32 years and you think that I hate it here, and that I myself should leave? I'll go, but you have to pay for it.

Great explanation!
