>>So you agree the actions of Loomer and Posobiec were not Alinsky tactics.

They used Rules 3,4,6,7,8,10.

Have you read the book?

My general rule is that I don’t bother to read things I agree with because I don’t require constant confirmation that I am right. I do read the things I do not agree with to understand the mind of the enemy. So I read Alinsky and others. Most Progressives write from a position of strict Humanism which cannot apply for me. But Alinsky’s rules do work for anyone who is in a position to rebel against authority.

Remember, as a con artist Alinsky is not just a liar, he’s also a thief. Meaning he would steal credit for ideas that have existed since the beginning of history.

None of the “rules” you listed are novel ideas. Their only distinction is that Alinsky worded them in a particular way in his book.

In other words, Alinsky’s “rules” are like the message in a fortune cookie. Generic and applicable even when there’s no real connection. Loomer and Posobiec could have had Alinksy’s tactics in their back pocket as they did this at the theater, or they could have done exactly the same thing without ever having heard of Alinsky.
