[Kerr] When we grow out of childish conceptions into clearer ones, we have to choose between discarding our old phrases and keeping them, but reading a new meaning into them... I merely see that untrained minds attach themselves to words, and that it may be a waste of effort to try to detach them."

[Just mythoughts] Key to the furious anger against any who question Darwinism... those untrained minds

That's a very interesting statement by Kerr. If socialists merely stopped using common vocabulary that we are naturally attached to, what would happen? That's not the approach they take, though. They attach new (and nonsensical) meanings to common words. For example, 'human' means 'ape' now. Similarly 'good', 'evil', 'God', 'truth', 'proof', 'species', 'life', 'science', etc, do not mean what we think they mean in any discourse corrupted by socialism, atheism, and Darwinism. Of course all this, if allowed to fester unresisted, makes discourse between humans impossible... and the ultimate reduction of human communication to gibberish is in fact a socialist goal.

They all practice from the same handbook as part of the scientific methodology...

In any event, Alinsky's rules include:

"Wherever possible go outside the experience of the enemy. Here you want to cause confusion, fear and retreat."

"Make the enemy live up to his/her own book of rules. You can kill them with this. They can no more obey their own rules than the Christian church can live up to Christianity."

"Ridicule is man's most potent weapon. It is almost impossible to counterattack ridicule. Also, it infuriates the opposition, who then react to your advantage."

"The threat is generally more terrifying than the thing itself."

"In a fight almost anything goes. It almost reaches the point where you stop to apologize if a chance blow lands above the belt."

"Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it and polarize it." (Think Gingrich, Lott and the success of name-calling used by the likes of Bill Clinton, Paul Begala, James Carville, Maxine Waters and others against conservatives and Republicans. Think of how Clinton "enemies" like Paula Jones or Linda Tripp were treated.)

"One of the criteria for picking the target is the target's vulnerability ... the other important point in the choosing of a target is that it must be a personification, not something general and abstract." (Trent Lott comes to mind. Meanwhile, a former Klansman by the name of Sen. Robert Byrd got away with saying "nigger" on Fox News at least three times, and he still maintains his Senate seat and power.)

"The enemy properly goaded and guided in his reaction will be your major strength." For instance, Democrats imply conservatives are racists or that Republicans want to kill senior citizens by limiting the growth of the Medicare system, they imply Republicans want to deny kids lunch money without offering real proof. These red-herring tactics work.
