can’t wait to be accused of being a collaborator just because i’ve been peter principled into a position i don’t understand
That’s the neat thing about dictatorships, your behavior is completely irrelevant to how you are treated. If they want to end you, they don’t need a justification.
I know a federal government employee who spent over half a day writing their “5 things you did last week” email. It seemed like a very important task coming from high up in the administration, so they wanted to take the time to make sure it was done right.
The problem is, if they’re in one of the positions the fascists wanted to remove, they likely want that work disrupted; so you’re accomplishing their goal that way.
Fortunately they are in a role that the fascists are trying desperately to keep. So it’s kind of funny.
While technically true, you’re neglecting that a lot of these agencies employ quotas and performance awards and other metrics to track and promote the more hustler-mindset goons while dumping the less enthusiastic. That’s been at the heart of the DOGE campaign - finding and removing anyone who might potentially obstruct the administration’s agenda in any agency suspected of hosting opposition bureaucrats.
The purges guarantee the admin can bring in loyalists, more dedicated to the optics of the administration than the role of the office. The performance metrics produce a high rate of false positives in investigations, arrests, and prosecutions. But that’s not a bug in this system, its a feature. The “oops I’m bad at my job” strategy of internal disruption isn’t a bad one on its face, but it is also not one higher ups aren’t fully aware of (and often unjustifiably paranoid about). When the fascist regime begins to fail and starts searching for scapegoats, some of the first they pounce on are the incompetent or unenthusiastic agents on the inside.
That’s a big reason why mid-level bureaucrats best serve the system by exiting it entirely. Simply leaving an empty desk does more to clog the gears than doing a mediocre job in the role. And you’re not around to take the heat when a Trump AG feels the need to arrest a judge or prosecute a prosecutor for failing to torment local residents fast enough.
Bikeshed the shit out of everything.
Nazi Germany might have killed less Jews if they spent an excessive amount of time in meetings about which tile to use in the gas chambers.
Edit: "As per mine previous telegram, zee Führer does not vant to spend zee time and money to create a swastika mosaic in zee gas chambers vhen vee are already EIGHT MONTHS BEHIND SCHEDULE!! Please review zee color options vee discussed at our last meeting and let me know how you could like to proceed as soon as possible.
Most sincerely,
Colonel Wilhelm Klink"
Here’s the thing: my dad does tiling on a regular basis and he says it’s ceramic or it’s nothing. Especially when you’re working with a caustic gas.
The problem is the grout. You want a grout that isn’t going to fall apart after several uses. The color plays an important role on the binding so we really need to commission a study on how much of a mixture we need.
This is why the stormtroopers all miss
The CIA wrote a manual on how to do this. It’s a bit old and parts of it are outdate for some times of work, but a lot of it is still useful.
- Misunderstand orders. Ask endless questions or engage in long correspondence about such orders
- Insist on perfect work in relatively unimportant products
- Hold conferences when there is more critical work to be done (some might say normal businesses do this as a matter of course…)
- Bring up irrelevant issues as frequently as possible
Shit, 80% of the people I work with must have read that manual then. That’s a near daily occurrence.
this isn’t even a meme, there are politics communities for this kind of thing.
Take another look at the comm name.
there are politics communities for political stuff, it meme communities are meant for funny stuff.
It’s a screen cap from a micro blog in a micro blog comm.
And just because you don’t find it funny doesn’t mean it isn’t.
it’s not a meme at all, it’s just a statement. it has to be a microblog meme, not just a microblog.
Huh, well everyone else here seems to think you’re wrong.
And this hits a number of things that makes it a meme as others pointed out.
Have your opinion. You’ve voiced your opinion. I promise to forget all about this exchange if you understand that people are disagreeing with you and are allowed to. Otherwise one of us is going to end up blocking the other after we waste each other’s time.
“promise to forget all about this exchange” as if that matters at all on social media
So you have choosen annoyance. Really dude.
