Are you exhausted by tyranny but too introverted for a coup?Congratulations! You may already be a passive resister. A Pocket Guide to Passively Resisting Tyranny is your slightly snarky, highly strategic field manual for surviving late-stage democracy with your soul (and maybe your internet history) intact. From bureaucratic judo to encrypted memes, this guide is for the everyday human who’s sick of authoritarian nonsense but also has groceries to buy and a job to not get fired from. You’ll learn how to: Weaponize politeness like a passive-aggressive ninja Financially starve tyrants (without canceling Netflix*) Troll oppression with memes, art, or a suspiciously well-organized PTA Whisper 'this is fascism' over brunch without ruining the mimosas Say no, quietly and legally, in ways that make overlords sweat(*Okay, maybe cancel Netflix.) Whether you’re a burned-out teacher, a government worker with ethics, a parent who doesn’t want their kid pledging loyalty to dystopia, or just someone who keeps saying 'wait, can they actually DO that?'-this book’s got your back (and a to-do list). It’s practical, subversive, and funny enough to keep your spirits high while you file your 10th FOIA request out of spite. Buy the book. Learn the tricks.Fight the power-politely, persistently, and with just the right amount of sarcasm.
