    Honestly, the way you become ungovernable is the same way the government becomes unaccountable to the people.

    Passive hostility. Slow roll everything. Throw a wrench in every system you can. Stop at all stop signs and railroad tracks, and wait 3 seconds to confirm all other traffic has stopped. Make every request in writing, using snail mail, then call every day (or multiple times a day) to see if they got your requests. Demand everything communication to you is done in the slowest and most expensive way for them possible. File FOIA requests for everything. Cop pulls you over, take a while to find your license and registration. Become sludge, become a quagmire. Make anything and everything the government does to you a huge use of their time and effort. Embrace your inner old man “get off my lawn” energy.

      To add to this, you can generate lists of likely emails of CEOs and yell at them and get free stuff. ATT gave me 6 free months and a free phone. They actually have to have done some bullshit, though. But channel your inner Karen. It’s okay when you aim it at the C suite instead of the store manager.

    What it actually means

    Edit: looks like I fucked up grabbing a picture off ddg without looking closely. But you get the idea
