Since the inauguration of Donald Trump in January, tens of thousands of people have downloaded the “Simple Sabotage Field Manual”, a guide written by a US intelligence agent in 1944 to help the allied resistance during World War II. Its newfound popularity comes amid an emerging grassroots opposition to waves of executive orders from the new president.

    The irony of it already lining up with general federal procedure has not been lost on anyone btw.

    “Insist on doing everything through ‘channels’. Never permit short-cuts to be taken in order to expedite decisions," the guide advises.

    Basically, live your life like Biden when he had the numbers to do what Dem voters wanted.

    Throw everything to committes and “look into” stuff until there’s no time to do anything, if things start moving to fast, start arguing over minute details to divide support, and stick with whatever division erode just enough support to prevent implementation.

    Which means the most depressing part about this is the Dem establishment 100% knows exactly how to do all this stuff, they’ve just decided to only use those methods against progressives and not fascists.
