I really don't get the core or sovcit ideology. Are they saying they want to be outside the law. If that's the case anybody could do horrible things to them without the protection of a country's law. Or are they, at the very core, just greedy assholes trying to take all the benefits without contributing back?
It's this. They are the adult equivalent of the toddler that steals the cookies and then tells the parent "I can't be in trouble because those cookies are mine", while blissfully unaware that you have to buy cookies and they don't just appear on the shelf.
"Cookies" in this analogy is the societal contract. I realize that analogy may have been a little dense.
Yeah, this ideology doesn't have a solid leg to stand on within the current framework of lifestyle options available to everyone.
I honestly can't parse out who in all this is crazy, dumb, selfish, or some combo platter of the above.
