The purpose of these writings is quite simple. We wanted to provide an easy to use tool in understanding Alinsky’s teachings, the tactics used by his followers, their motives, and the contrast of these to the spirit of America and her forefathers. Alinsky’s goal was revolution, just as our forefathers; but the outcome of each revolution are as different as freedom vs slavery. You can find the archives HERE.
Chapter One: The Purpose
“WHAT FOLLOWS IS for those who want to change the world from what it is to what they believe it should be.”
Above is the first sentence. Where do we even start? The first thing that comes to my mind is, this guy is trying to convince fools that they can change reality. The truth is that he is trying to appeal to young fools with the notion that they can create their world Utopia and he can lead the way. It is laughable at best, but dangerous in practice.
“Rules for Radicals is written for the Have-Nots on how to take it (power) away.”
Right here is the distinguishable difference between sleazy conmen and true American Patriots who sincerely care for their fellow man. Any honest man with real concern for the “Have-Nots” understands that taking power away from someone else will never cure their misery and will never lead them to a peaceful life filled with personal success and fulfillment.
Many of us are familiar with the old adage, “Give a man a fish, feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, feed him for a lifetime.” I have a different twist. “Give a man a fish, own him for life. Teach a man to fish and he will teach others, and find success, meaning and purpose in his own life.”
I once had a very eye-opening exchange with a fervent fan and Alinsky believer. He told me that Alinsky’s teaching was about empowering the poor. “Some of these people don’t even know how to be on time to an appointment. They need to be taught to be on time. “He went on to try and tell me that the community organizing was about teaching them to have pride in themselves and their community so that maybe they would be able to get a ‘Stop’ sign put in where it may be needed.
I told him he was full of crap. If he wants to teach them to be on time and care about their community, invite them to your home for dinner; expect them to be on time, and show them that you care about them as an individual. Show them that you value them enough to invite them to your home. They must care about themselves and find value in themselves before they can offer value to their community. The last thing the community needs is people with no self-worth thrusting themselves into the system because you got them all riled up over their lack of “Haves.” His response was that I was obviously very smart and would be successful in my life in whatever I chose to do with my future. Huh? Obviously he knew I was onto the scam, exposed it, and called on him to put real power behind his words.
The real intent and purpose for Alinsky was to feed on vulnerable and angry people to create an army willing to help him take power from others in order to empower himself and justify his own miserable existence. He wanted to offer a false promise of paradise to the young and idealistic in exchange for them becoming his personal soldiers to wage war against the “Haves.”
There are two realities about our world that he cannot afford his targets know.
1) The world is not fair.
2) The world does not owe you your hearts desire simply because you exist and didn’t choose to exist in this world.
The reality of this world is that there are things you can control and things you can’t. What defines purpose and success in your life is how you handle the things you can control.
