Resist: It's Time

We are still in this together, but "this" is going to be real different in the very near future. This demands a different kind of "we."

The French Resistance during Nazi occupation played important roles delivering downed Allied airmen back to safety, supplying military intelligence, and acts of sabotage.

The Underground Railroad is estimated to have brought 100,000 freedom seekers to safety between 1810 and 1850.

It's time.

The Simple Sabotage Field Manual listed tactics average citizens could employ to destabilize their government and help hasten its demise.

This manual was produced in January 1944 by the OSS (precursor to the CIA).

This really is good to be bumped. Some stuff is obviously dated or impractical now, but it's a good start to get in the right mindset of simple, everyday sabotage.

Obviously, the pack portions about office workers and ordinary people is still relevant. IT techs can misconfigure applications to bring down availability, federal workers can weaponize regulations, and everyone can play dumb with ICE.

If you're a straight white male, it may be useful to also start displaying pride flags and Central American flags so that you can take some heat off of vulnerable people. Drawing fire could be one of the best ways to waste resources on wild goose chases.

Please don't sabotage random cars or things like the electrical grid that will make innocent people suffer. The enemy lives in the Whitehouse, not down the street from you. And ruining tools only makes it so the next person who uses them injures themselves. I guess if you hate all your coworkers, go for it. Just seems like a good way to get absolutely everyone to turn on each other.

Obviously. This is covered in the manual.
