I honestly get what they mean up until the graven image bit lol. I need to talk to less crazy people
Can you clarify the PIE bit?
They're referring to proto-indo-european im pretty sure, and the similarity of the origin word for name to the sound no-men/no-man, this goes into the sovereign citizen thing that they were talking about earlier than a name is an assignment of office, so a name isn't a man aka isn't you
And that feeds into their conspiracy theory that the name given to you is actually someone else's so if you refuse your name you become a sovereign citizen, and don't need to follow certain laws as they apply to your name not you as an individual
Wow, nice catch. Same root as "Nomenclature". Totally wooshed me on that.
