How To Gum Up the Works - OSS Sabotage Manual for Everyday Citizens
Real WWII sabotage tips, reimagined for libraries, school boards, city halls, and sleepy Zoom calls
They want you efficient. Obedient. Quiet.
But what if you’re not?
How to Gum Up the Works is here.
This isn’t just a book—it’s a tactical manual for halting the slow creep of authoritarianism.
How to Gum Up the Works is built for the everyday citizen who sees what’s happening and refuses to go along quietly. Inspired by a declassified WWII sabotage manual from the OSS, it’s been reimagined for today’s soft coup—for the civic spaces and public systems being hollowed out from the inside.
Inside, you’ll find:
Workplace slowdown tactics and deniable disruptions to stall compliance from within
Cheat codes for jamming up bureaucracy without setting off alarms
Real WWII sabotage methods, adapted for libraries, school boards, city halls, and sleepy Zoom calls where power hides behind procedure
It’s small enough to carry in your pocket. Subversive enough to flip your thinking.
Because fighting fascism doesn’t always start with a march—it starts with no.
The print edition drops June 1. Signed, sealed, and ready to stir up some trouble.
Stay loud. Stay bold. Stay American.

Wow! This is so exciting! This is exactly what I’ve been waiting for! I’m trying to figure out if I can afford to be a paid subscriber! I’m one of those people who worked for non-profits most of my career and just don’t have the $$$ I thought I would at retirement! Not complaining, just have to watch it! I am, however, very patient, and mucking up the works in my own little ways! Opening the eyes of those who didn’t believe it would come to this! I am kind and compassionate, working for justice and peace… therefore I AM THE ENEMY WITHIN! Hahaha That always cracks me up! “Don’t fuck with the “invisible” old ladies! So, THANK YOU, Lady Liberté, you rock! 💙💙💙
Brilliant!
