The Ozimandias Collective's Field Guide to Direct Action

Ozymandias'

Sabotage Handbook




These volumes are part of this time and place and may not exist on the web tomorrow or next year...so save your own copies if you're into it. Someday it will only exist in the files of the thousands of you who've read and wanted a personal copy for dependable, untraceable reference.

Good luck....and remember that being skillful in a spiritual sense is adding our weight and selves sensitively to the eddies swirling about...that's the WAY, the tao. There are exceptions, but actually doing harm to things (even rich corporation's property) as explained in these volumes is almost always as unskilful as jabbing sticks into bicycle spokes or pulling the wings off flies.
We think that this type of material is good, perhaps even vital, for the protection of our free societies. We sincerly hope you give all thoughts on actual sabotage serious thought and reflection on the greater picture and whether indeed it's a good idea. Glad you've found this site.
