Anyone have the "resist fascism by making mistakes" copypasta? I can't find it because the internet sucks
The one where it encourages people to work within the system but sabotage it by fucking up with plausible deniability
EDIT : I found this : https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/revoluciana-facing-fascism-sabotage
I was thinking of like a meme or a comic or a specific pasta.

I believe you are looking for the Simple Sabotage Field Manual, the original of which is still on the CIA's website!
Wasn't that written by the CIA? Maybe that'll help you narrow it down. I think it's some "CIA manual on..." document.
Are you thinking of Simple Sabotage?

I was hoping for a memey thing I saw floating around lemmy .
Thanks for the advice
Yeah you are correct. That was the manual for internal sabotage
Are you thinking of this?
Close but not quite. Thank you for sharing
Didn't work in Germany.
I seem to recall the fascists losing in Germany.
This sort of sabotage is for resisting a tyrannical government where resisting more openly means death. Its goal is to hasten a tyranny's collapse, not prevent its formation.
If you want to prevent a tyranny from consolidating its power, what you're looking for is revolution. Use your freedom of movement to organize into local militias/guerillas and make plans to take or destroy nearby key infrastructure. Optionally make contact with other cells to track their progress and coordinate. Then at either some broadly communicated time or at a watershed moment, execute your plans. If you succeed at your objectives, help ones that failed.
