So if someone keeps punching you in the face, do you allow them to keep doing so unchecked?
Do you not punch back?
No
This isnt a physical confrontation at all
So it's only okay with physical confrontations? Well, all right, look at it this way - you're holding the opponent to their own standards. how about that?
It does not work
Think of the Roseanne circus - Gunn supported the Roseanne firing. His OWN STANDARD was used against him.
I dissagree with Alinsky on that one
If you can't hold the enemy to their OWN RULES OF ENGAGEMENT, what the hell are you supposed to do? Attain victory by surrendering?
Having standards makes you look better
@Black Mage Let me put it this way
The main people attacking Gunn right now:
Mike "date rate doesn't exist: try it" Cernovich
Matt "gays are the reason for pedos in the Catholic Church" Walsh
Ted "I endorse Roy Moore" Cruz
Paul "pizzagate" Watson
At least the Reagenites who took Milo down weren't hypocrites.
Roy Moore was 100% innocent. A partially forged yearbook and some personal testimony, including one set forward by Gloria Allred, are all there was on him.
"We're just holding them to their own standards", people say, as everyone competes in a race to the bottom to be shitty to one another, battling over the remaining ashes of basic human decency.
I'm surprised, even Sargon agrees with my sentiment here
they had a choice btw
every right wing free speech lover has spent the last 48 hours looking for jokes to get mad at
they could have chosen not fire
Sargon isnt engaging in it
But he agrees.
but the fired him
Wich I also do
<:makes_you_think:382980749780844554>
"i wouldn't even rape you"
And I'm still saying turnabout is fair play, so I don't see the "gotcha" here.
well its around that time of the meme so he gets a pass
could have worded it better tho
> Go after actual pedophiles
Or
> Screech about people putting lines on paper
The slacktivist goes for the second option, because that is a easiest way they can signal that they hate pedophiles
whether you agree with the tactics or not... it's fucking delicious to watch them eat their own, I only wish it happened more often.
Unpopular opinion: Alinsky's rule about holding your enemies to their own standards (not that it's really his) doesn't work, and observing the categorial imperative to keep your methods more civilised is far more likely to win both hearts and mids, and this is proven by the past.
I agree, Hazzard
Also, remaining "civilized" for the Right meant for years that the Left were awarded free scalps
I'm going to reject that state of affairs.
The floor was wiped with Cetronius. Never forget.
It's kind of like how feminists expect men to roll over and give them an advantage in the workplace, as Sargon as spoken of many times: the men should tell the feminists to get fucked and deal with the world they created
I had Shawarma today
Pretty damn good
I'm really sick of Alinsky being the online shitposter's bible
Well, how about you come up with an alternative Shitposting framework?
They stated the rules of the game, So you can choose to play or not. Remember if he was really their goi then they could just have said it was fake or deflected it. But no the rules dictate if your white and male and at some point in your social media said this you must be cast out.
