Strawman

Strawman

Definition

In legal contexts, a strawman refers to a false or fictitious entity created to represent a "person", often used in discussions about sovereignty, personal identity, and control within societal systems. In sovereignty movements, the strawman is viewed as a legal fiction tied to an individual through documentation like birth certificates, social security numbers, or government-issued identification.

The concept of the strawman originates from legal and administrative practices, where it serves as a proxy for an individual in contractual or governmental dealings. This idea gained traction in sovereignty and self-governance movements, which assert that the strawman is a tool of control, separating individuals from their true, sovereign selves.

In Roman law, the concept of capitis deminutio described a reduction in legal status, which parallels modern interpretations of the strawman.
