It's interesting how sovcits have so recently and dramatically changed.

There have always been a few people who thought they could somehow carve out their own territory in the middle of the United States, or that for some reason the laws wouldn't apply to them. There have been jokes about them on the Simpsons and elsewhere.

But it was all individual. It wasn't this Q-Anon like conformity, and, while always ridiculous, not quite this delusional. This new sovcit thing is different and propaganda/single large cult fueled.

Social media. Fringe groups are tiny on their own, physically, but they gain traction through online echo chambers with little barrier to entry
