“where the fuck did you get the bullshit notion that the United States became a goddamn corporation in 1871?”
From what i’ve gathered, it’s referring to the District of Columbia Organic Act of 1871, which established that the District of Columbia was a thing.
Though the actual reason is that these Freeman of The Land/Sovereign Citizen types think that the US Government is really a corporation, but also love the Founding Fathers (or at least their conception of them) and talking about America’s “roots” and “traditions”, which basically means they have to create some artificial, arbitrary distinction between the “pure, original” US that they can fertishize, and the “Evil/Really a Corporation” US of the Modern day which is their source of all evil, and the DC Act was just a convenient dividing line for them.
