Your god Alinsky's rules don't work anymore. The following is a list of Alinsky’s rules for upheaval:
RULE 1: “Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have.”
RULE 4: “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.”
RULE 5: “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.”
RULE 8: “Keep the pressure on. Never let up.”
RULE 12: “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.”
Of these, Rules 4, 5, 8, and 12 have been used to greatest effect by the Left.
“If your opponent [has a hot temper], seek to irritate him. If he is taking his ease, give him no rest. If his forces are united, separate them. Attack him where he is unprepared; appear where you are not expected.” (Book I, Verses 22-24)”
Much has been made in recent political history of Saul Alinsky and his Rules for Radicals. Bill and Hillary Clinton reportedly followed Alinsky’s advice. Hillary wrote her thesis on Alinsky. Barack Obama taught a class on using Alinsky principles to keep the nation in chaos. After all, it’s easier to get radical policies enacted during a crisis.
However, there is an older, much more battle-tested set of rules for warfare that are becoming more applicable to politics in the United States as the political arena begins to resemble the Roman Colosseum: The Art of War by Sun-Tzu.
