Hitchhiking to Nashville With Titus (barefoot off-grid evangelist)

[Snarkoleptic]

I'm an atheist, but found this story fascinating (after a couple of gummies).
Interesting video about a barefoot, straw hat-wearing preacher, hitchhiking from his hometown to Nashville, to spread his message.
Titus is off-the-grid and has no form of ID, which makes for interesting interactions with the authorities.
His traveling partner is a youtuber with some weird ideas about government creating division among the populace, but I look beyond that weirdness.
During the Kentucky leg of the trip the drivers who pick them up, tend to have the old " 'Murica is on the wrong track" idea, but it's an interesting peek into their mindset.

1. I think I saw him teased on a show.

They said he didn’t have a name because he’d never gotten a birth certificate. Multi generational off the grid. If it’s the same guy.

2. Titus does mention he had a birth certificate but it was lost in a flood.

I get the feeling he is the person he presents himself as, so I hope this is not some BS youtube persona.

3. He gets to be who he is, whether or not he's reinvented himself

He just doesn't get to bully anyone else into giving him lip service or deciding what books are in a library or what women can wear, not that I've seen any evidence of his doing this.

(I've never been picked up by a tractor, worst ride was the back of a pickup truck with leaky plastic pails of chum in it)

ETA: Doesn't matter what burns in a house fire, the state will still have your birth certificate and the Feds know your SSN.
