Rules for Radicals

Rules for Radicals was written by Left-wing activist Saul Alinsky, and since its original publication has become a fundamental cornerstone in the application of Cultural Marxist activism. Within its pages are revealed the true levels of complete moral bankruptcy that this doctrine is capable of sinking to. The methodology contained within has one simple brutal purpose; to utterly demoralise and destroy the life of anyone possessed of the courage to stand in the path of a collectivised Marxist workers’ paradise. This goal is to be achieved first-and-foremost, through the ruthless exploitation of useful idiots whose capacity for critical thought ranges from inadequate to non-existent; the perfect pawns for charismatic demagogues seeking a horde of fanatical followers.

It goes without saying that reason, logic, and facts, play no role whatsoever in Alinsky’s philosophy; true to the morally relativistic nature of the Critical Theory, which served as its initial inspiration, it is a philosophy in which subjective opinion and empirical fact are granted equal intellectual status. This is no accident of course; it is essential to breeding a cultish mentality, and beliefs elevated to the status of facts are the lifeblood of dogma. It would be perfectly true to say that people who have been manipulated by those utilizing Alinsky’s methods are in many ways victims themselves, but their ignorance should not be seen as an excuse to allow them a pretence of innocence for the harm that they inflict on society. The twelve rules which Alinsky laid down will be presented in brief, to lay bare the utter immorality of radical Leftists.

The first rule that Alinsky laid down is that the illusion of power is more important than actual power. This is plain deception. The methodology is to try and convince others into the belief that the activist is possessed of far more power, and as a direct consequence far more influence than they truly possess. This is a variation on an intellectually dishonest debating method, commonly referred to as an appeal to popularity; appeals to popularity usually take the form of making statements such as ‘everyone in the room agrees with me,’ or ‘everyone in the room disagrees with you on that.’ The key to this is that it is illusory; whether or not an idea is popular has no relevance on whether or not it is a fact, but to the Critical Theorist, perception matters more than facts.

The second rule is to never address topics that lie beyond the knowledge-base of the cult members. This effectively amounts to a tacit admission of ignorance. Alinsky’s followers were, for the most part, uneducated and possessed of an extremely limited capacity for critical thinking. Their primary motivational factor was emotion, rather than reason. Alinsky however, recognized that this weakness could be overcome by firing up the emotions of his followers to fever pitch; an outraged and frenzied mob is not reliant on the intellectual justification for its actions and is well suited to intimidating opponents with threats, real or imagined, of physical harm.
