Traces back to Roman civil law, where
one's social status (civil liberties) are so degraded they resemble those of a pariah, enemy combatant, or slave.
According to internet Conspiracy Theory, it also refers to the capitalization of
one's name on their birth certificate, license, bank account, etc.. as a result of
one's Social Security Number which locks
one into a lifetime of debt (slavery) to the
matrix. The capitalized name represents one's fictional legal/corporate identity.
Why else would They completely capitalize your name on everything "official" and "legal"?
"{Capitis diminutio maxima is} The highest kind of capitis diminutio, when
liberty was
lost, which carried with it citizenship and
family." (Burrill)
