Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals:

5. “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.” There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions.

Alinsky’s “The Rules for Radicals”:

1. “Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have.” Power is derived from 2 main sources – money and people. “Have-Nots” must build power from flesh and blood.

2. “Never go outside the expertise of your people.” It results in confusion, fear and retreat. Feeling secure adds to the backbone of anyone.

3. “Whenever possible, go outside the expertise of the enemy.” Look for ways to increase insecurity, anxiety and uncertainty.

4. “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.” If the rule is that every letter gets a reply, send 30,000 letters. You can kill them with this because no one can possibly obey all of their own rules.

5. “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.” There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions.

6. “A good tactic is one your people enjoy.” They’ll keep doing it without urging and come back to do more. They’re doing their thing, and will even suggest better ones.

7. “A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.” Don’t become old news.

8. “Keep the pressure on. Never let up.” Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance. As the opposition masters one approach, hit them from the flank with something new.

9. “The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.” Imagination and ego can dream up many more consequences than any activist.

10. “The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition.” It is this unceasing pressure that results in the reactions from the opposition that are essential for the success of the campaign.

11. “If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive.” Violence from the other side can win the public to your side because the public sympathizes with the underdog.

12. “The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.” Never let the enemy score points because you’re caught without a solution to the problem.

13. “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster

The memes are fun, but the accounts with the NPC on Twit are downright roller coaster ride fun. What they do is set up an NPC account and fill the account description with leftist terms and phrases. Then they go out and post waaaay over the top leftist narratives on Twit threads. They’re getting banned left and right, but it sure is fun while they last. Orange man bad!

I would contend that lefties have two modes: NPC, and unhinged.

NPC is standard operating system mode.

When you take them out of their comfortable set of parameters, they fall back on their human instincts, and they are the worst ones; Like babies when you take their rattle away. I have already seen some of the NPC memes include short circuiting NPCs, so I’m not suggesting a new meme here. the NPC meme actually fits right in the other crap we see beyond the corporate PC culture and canned speeches you get with censorship. The other side of the coin is wigged out frenzied nuts who can’t handle losing control of political correctness. They actually think that because they fear loss of control, that spreading chaos will get attention

Alinsky’s “The Rules for Radicals”:

There's a glaring hole in Alinsky's rules.

PDJT also sees this hole and exploits it daily much to the chagrin of his political opponents.

It all gets back to what I've been saying all along. These politicians, bureaucrats & academics think they're the smartest people in the room.

They aren't and they prove it daily.

I started my WOW account back up just to have fun with the NPC’s.

It really is the perfect descriptor for libtards.

Completely Interchangeable, replaceable, hive-mentality Borg rage machines, programmed to think and respond predictably, equipped with the special trigger-word microchip.

My, my, my.... how special our little Snowflakes have become. Good Little Comrades.

Next thing you know, they’ll all be wearing Mao jackets and have that same GREAT haircut Mao had.

Following ol’ “Saul’s Rules” is what MAKES you an NPC.

I could do with a lot less posting of “Saul”, around here. Let the Dummies on the Left lap at the feet of this goon.

The Right should always be trying to Wake the Left, and that isn’t done with any of these asshat “rules”.

They are called ‘Rules for Radicals’, not ‘Rules for Leftist Radicals’. They work for both sides.

When the Left become the entrenched powers-that-be, the Right will be the ‘radicals’.

As one Leftist wrote in a comment section of a newspaper article about the Right fighting back, “OMG! THEY HAVE DISCOVERED ALINSKY’S RULES! WHAT WILL WE DO NOW???????”.... ..................
