True. One of Saul Alinsky’s rules for radicals was ridicule....which is a form of humor.

RULE 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. (Pretty crude, rude and mean, huh? They want to create anger and fear.)

It works. Why don’t Conservatives do likewise? The culture has gone insane, we have plenty of material.

Say something against Russia. All of the “conservatives” here will come out and call you the most horrible names.

Leftist ridicule is like middle school children shouting pubescent profanities:

- it's not TRUE, most of all, it's lies and shouting down and rude profanity. It's sarcasm = NOT FUNNY.

Conservative ridicule is based on irony, the juxtaposition of leftist words and deeds:

It takes intelligence, but most importantly, it's based on TRUTH.

and it's funny...many many FReepers are downright hilarious.
