>>Maybe you’re talking about some strategy that didn’t really originate from Alinsky.

TACTICS. I’m talking tactics. Tactics are part of a strategy. They are tools to achieve an end. The end varies according to your needs. Just as I can use a submarine in WW2 to sink American troop ships and I am a villain, but I can use it to sink Japanese troop ships and I get a Medal of Honor. Don’t confuse tactics with strategy, or goals.

Alinsky TACTICS are just that: tactics.

That’s a good distinction, I agree.

It could be that we disagree on very little, if anything at all. Did Loomer and Posobiec specifically name Alinsky tactics when they interrupted the play, or was there something they did that is only identifiable as Alinsky tactics?

I don’t mean to be too detail oriented here, but maybe if we just leave their tactics in place and throw away the name Alinsky there would be no argument.
