The World War II-era "Simple Sabotage Field Manual" is full of steps that office workers can take to resist leadership.

Over the last week, the guide has surged to become the 5th-most-accessed book on Project Gutenberg, an open source repository of free and public domain ebooks. It is also the fifth most popular ebook on the site over the last 30 days, having been accessed nearly 60,000 times over the last month (just behind Romeo and Juliet).

    There is more merit to people in a meritocracy than grades alone.

    Do you not believe in getting opportunity? Can you recall a few times people took a chance on you? What if nobody ever did?

      Please stop. I literally made this thread a while back

      I believe in people getting opportunities. What I don’t like are thought police, or thought correction officers.

      Left authoritarianism is still authoritarianism.

      I also don’t take it for granted that someone talking about “empathy” or “compassion” necessarily doesn’t have ulterior motives.

          DEI is for all identities, not just POC. Creating more process is part of the the CIA field manual for fighting fascists, hence the question, are more bureaucratic jobs being created in some misguided attempt to “fight US imperialism”?
