I think what sovereign citizen types naively don't understand is that ultimately all power ultimately stems from exercise of force, declaring yourself a sovereign citizen won't do shit so long as you're in a place where the state is able to exercise force. This is why loophole maxxing is the way to go, you'll never be able to overpower the state on your own, you'll never win in court by arguing that you're not subject to their jurisdiction, but loophole maxxing might get them to leave you alone which is exactly what you were hoping they would do anyways
