I am baffled by how this "movement" never seems to be running out of gullible people to attempt doing this. Because you know whoever tries it never lasts very long before they get a reality check. How much longer can it last before they run out?

It's because the do your research crowd never post things that go against their bias.

It’s a puzzle, because they’ve been doing this shit for decades

This has been happening since the 70s but stuff like Facebook definitely inflated it. It seems much worse since the days of Trump as everyone on the right has become certifiable. This is what disinformation does.

They aren't really gullible. If you watch the youtube videos, it's pretty much always people that already had their licenses revoked, sometimes permanently. They're just trying to convince themselves there's some way to legally drive again.
