Read the book, not the wiki page. These are the same tools that we can use to defeat the Communists who pretend to be Progressive or liberal or even Christian.

One quote from alinsky is all I will ever need to know...

“Lest we forget at least an over-the-shoulder acknowledgment to the very first radical from all our legends, mythology, and history (and who is to know where mythology leaves off and history begins — or which is which), the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom — Lucifer.”

Best tool is the truth. That is the best way to put liars to ridicule; they can’t withstand it.

Hillary was Alinsky's protege - that is why the left is terrified of ridicule. With that thought in mind, I present:

Trump golfs Hillary

Hillary seizure

What makes it worse is that he prefaced that lie (Lucifer won nothing; God gave him everything he has and he admitted as much in Luke 4:6) with a truncated quote from Thomas Paine, ripped out of context.
Let them call me rebel, and welcome, I feel no concern from it; but I should suffer the misery of devils, were I to make a whore of my soul by swearing allegiance to one, whose character is that of a stupid, stubborn, worthless, brutish man. I conceive likewise a horrid idea in receiving mercy from a being, who as the last day shall be shrieking to the rocks and mountains to cover him, and fleeing with terror from the orphan, the widow and the slain of America. …

The American Crisis
Alinsky cut it off at “whore of my soul”, thus destroying the meaning or any meaning of that quote (which referred specifically to England’s king of that time).

Alinsky is old and busted. Time for a new bogeyman as this one has lost his punch.

“O-ho-o Alinsky you magnificent bastard! I read your book!”

And a tip-of-the-hat to PATTON and Hatlo’s History.

Try reading the Black Panther Manifesto and you will see exactly what Obama was trying to do.

“That is the best way to put liars to ridicule; they can’t withstand it.”......

Their minds are so closed nothing gets through.

Obama's Organizing for Action, the paid toughs who disrupt Trump rallies and GOP town halls, is pure Alinsky.

Unfortunately, Alinsky lives.

Perhaps, but not likely. As demonstrated by Obama, Alinsky disciples don't have consciences.

Alinsky’s ideas guide ‘community organizers’... so don’t kid yourself... he is still with us and still causing trouble.

Really? Jobs for Black People? What happened to that?

So you use the tactics without being a “disciple” of a dead man. Blitzkreig, unrestricted submarine warfare, and the AK-47 all came from bad people, but I’d use them to win a fight.
