Meet Your Strawman is a book that explores the concept of the "strawman" in legal, political, and personal contexts. The term "strawman" refers to a legal fiction or construct that represents a person in various official or bureaucratic systems, often tied to the idea of the corporate identity or legal status that is distinct from an individual's true self. The book delves into the concept that individuals are often unknowingly entangled with this "strawman" persona, particularly within the legal and financial systems, where a person’s name is used to create a separate legal entity.
The text argues that by understanding the creation and existence of this "strawman," individuals can reclaim their personal sovereignty, challenge corporate authority, and gain control over their own lives. It presents the idea that much of the control and legal obligations people face stem from this fictional persona rather than their true, natural self. The book often explores ideas related to common law, personal freedom, and self-empowerment, encouraging readers to examine how the legal system and its structures affect their identity and rights.
