From the outset can see how frightening Alinsky is in his active destruction.
Satan was unrestrained by moral implications, and in his plans, the question of whether something is moral or immoral is irrelevant. Aleister Crowley said the sum of the law is "Do what thou wilt."
I suspect as we delve into this book and Alinsky's tactics, we will find that in all of them there are only two considerations: Will it work, and can I get away with it?
As we learn the tactics, it should be with a mind of finding how to counteract them, not how to implement them for our ends. We have to learn to expose the lie to the light of truth, not co-opt the lie to our own purposes.
Thanks eeevil. Please add me to your ping list.
