    If there was actually some technicality that meant they were trying them in the wrong type of court or whatever, wouldn’t they just end that trial and go and do it properly?

    I swear I’ve heard this sort of nonsense strategy before…

      I think some of them believe that the government has been replaced by some sort of fake organization that pretends to be a government, like a corporation or something, and as such that the proper court doesn’t exist and so they can’t legally be tried.

        It is more that they believe they didn’t choose to be governed by their government and therefore they are a citizen within their own separate nation. In their eyes, the court exists but has no jurisdiction over them.
